Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. We regularly repair solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused during installation and scorch marks from pans.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Crocker's Ash questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you cover Crocker's Ash?

We do. We send a technician to Crocker's Ash for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Crocker's Ash. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we’re called out for in Crocker's Ash

Most chips are on edges and corners, normally from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Scorch marks from pans

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
