Worktop repair in Derry Downs without replacing anything
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on granite & marble, quartz and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are burns from hot pans and damage to a stone worktop.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
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 to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Use a chopping board
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, 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.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Common problems we fix in Derry Downs
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Scratches and knife marks
