What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Chilworth. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Questions from Chilworth
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Chilworth?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. 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.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
