Worktop repair in Crofton without replacing anything
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Whether it’s a chipped quartz edge and burns from hot pans, we can typically put it right, on quartz, solid wood and granite & marble alike.
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.

Repair or replace: which is better?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Crofton questions
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Do you come to Crofton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Crofton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Use a chopping board
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
When to call us in Crofton
