How we handle worktop repair in Crookgate Bank
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. We are often asked to fix snagging damage in a new kitchen and chips in quartz or granite, across granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repair or replace in Crookgate Bank?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Your questions about worktop repair in Crookgate Bank

What happens next?

Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Clean spills immediately
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
