Worktop repair at your home in Blackthorn
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. If you’re dealing with cuts and scratches in the surface and dents and gouges, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Materials we work on in Blackthorn
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Why repair rather than replace?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Blackthorn questions
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Blackthorn and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
