Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Colbost. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IV55 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need worktop repair in Colbost?
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips on edges and corners
- Knife marks
- Scorch marks from pans
- A damaged sink edge

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
