Worktop repair in Bottoms, done in place
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. We work on solid wood, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people contact us are chipped corners and damage from fitting or building work.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bottoms. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Repairs by material
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Keep wood oiled
- Clean spills straight away
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
