How we handle worktop repair in Byers Green
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for scratches and knife marks and chips on edges and corners, in solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Byers Green questions
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Normally. Send us a photo and we will tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
When to call us in Byers Green
Edges and corners chip most frequently, often when something heavy catches the edge.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A chipped quartz edge
- Chips near the sink
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- A heat mark or burn

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repairing versus replacing in Byers Green
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
