When we’d advise against a repair

- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean spills immediately
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Brixham. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Brixham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Brixham and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Brixham: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Usually. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What we are called out for in Brixham
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Chipped corners
- Burns from hot pans
Questions to ask before booking
- How to look after the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
