Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Before you book anyone
- How your room will be protected
- When it can be used again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Should you replace it?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Keep wood oiled
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Cotton End: your questions answered
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your NN4 postcode.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
