Worktop repair at your home in Bulmer
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are damage from fitting or building work and damage to a stone worktop.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Discolouration deep in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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 generally the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Bulmer
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Bulmer. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean spills immediately
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not let water sit on joints
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
