How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Use a chopping board
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A top that moves on its units
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
