Worktop repair in Coton without replacing anything
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Typical jobs include a chipped edge and a dent from a dropped pan, in solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cambridgeshire.

Common questions in Coton
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Generally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you come to Coton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Coton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- 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.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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 pictures.
