DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. Common call-outs are for chips on edges and corners and burns from hot pans, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Coalhill questions
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Use a chopping board
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Coalhill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The material
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
