Worktop repair at your home in Burghclere Common
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Our repair technicians work on laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most frequently call us about knife marks and a heat mark or burn.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep wood oiled
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Common questions in Burghclere Common

Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Failed support under the worktop
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What worktop repair costs

Why repair rather than replace?

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
