How we handle worktop repair in Cheddleton
Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are damage to a stone worktop and damage around the sink cut-out.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep wood oiled
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Advice
Cheddleton questions
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you come to Cheddleton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Cheddleton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
