DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Caversham Heights: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Same prices wherever you are
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Landlord and trade work in Caversham Heights
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What else we do in Caversham Heights
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Clean spills right away
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
When to call us in Caversham Heights
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Knife marks
- Burns from hot pans
- A dent from a dropped pan
