DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- Same prices wherever you are

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Water-swollen laminate
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Clean spills immediately
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Questions from Bocking's Elm
Are there extra charges for Bocking's Elm?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
