Worktop repair in Castor without replacing anything
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Our repair technicians work on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about burns from hot pans and chips in quartz or granite.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Castor
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Castor, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Castor. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- The type of damage
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
