About our worktop repair in Calthwaite
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Whether it’s burns from hot pans and knife marks, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Do you need worktop repair in Calthwaite?
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Gouges in the surface
- A chipped edge
- A heat mark or burn
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Calthwaite. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Calthwaite, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Discolouration deep in quartz
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Calthwaite questions
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
