How we handle worktop repair in British
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We work on granite & marble, solid wood and laminate, and the jobs we see most are cuts and scratches in the surface and damage to a stone worktop.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in British
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
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.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
If you are in British and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Questions from British
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
