Worktop repair in Dalton, done in place
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for damage to a stone worktop and cuts and scratches in the surface, on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

- Chipped corners
- Scratches and knife marks

Landlord and trade work in Dalton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Why repair rather than replace?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dalton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
