Worktop repair at your home in Canford Magna
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Our repair technicians work on quartz, laminate and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are a heat mark or burn and a damaged sink edge.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Your questions about worktop repair in Canford Magna
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dorset.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Repairing versus replacing in Canford Magna
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use a chopping board
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
When to call us in Canford Magna
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Scorch marks from pans
- A chipped edge
- Gouges in the surface
