Worktop repair at your home in Colwinston
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during installation and cuts and scratches in the surface.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Colwinston as everywhere else we work.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Colwinston. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Most customers in Colwinston get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repair or replace in Colwinston?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How much does worktop repair cost in Colwinston?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CF71 postcode.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
