The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
How we handle worktop repair in Burgh St Peter
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during installation and chips in quartz or granite.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What affects the price in Burgh St Peter

- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
