Worktop repair in Capel Cross without replacing anything
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for knife marks and chips near the sink, across granite & marble, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Use a chopping board
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
