What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:

- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
