Charlton Down questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you come to Charlton Down?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Charlton Down and the rest of Dorset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you cover the entire of Dorset?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Charlton Down, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DT2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Re-oil timber worktops
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Discolouration deep in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you need worktop repair in Charlton Down?
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Burns from hot pans
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Scratches and knife marks
Comparing quotes
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
