DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Curborough, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price

What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
What we’re called out for in Curborough
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scratches and knife marks
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Chipped corners
- A damaged sink edge

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Keep wood oiled
- Never put hot pans down directly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Curborough questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
