What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Dalton: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Dalton. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Dalton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material

- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Re-oil timber worktops
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Common problems we fix in Dalton
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips caused during installation
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Scorch marks from pans
- Chipped corners
