Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Related advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Failed support under the worktop
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Dry around the sink and joints
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
