Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Worktop repair in Candle Street without replacing anything
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Common call-outs are for dents and gouges and damage to a stone worktop, across laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Candle Street and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Use a chopping board
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Dry around the sink and joints
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Candle Street: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you come to Candle Street?
We do. Technicians travel to Candle Street from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Candle Street use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Should you replace it?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
