Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep wood oiled
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
About our worktop repair in Cowes
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include a chipped edge and damage from fitting or building work, across laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Nothing taken out or refitted
Take a look at our full price list.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Cowes. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Cowes: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you what’s possible.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
