About our worktop repair in Croxdale
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new kitchen and a dent from a dropped pan, across solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use a chopping board
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Questions from Croxdale
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
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?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
