Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep wood oiled
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically 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.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire worktop
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
