About our worktop repair in Colwell
Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. Common call-outs are for damage to a stone worktop and chips on edges and corners, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Landlord and trade work in Colwell
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Colwell questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What areas do you cover?
All of Isle of Wight, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Colwell
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
