DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Worktop repair at your home in Digby
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for a chipped edge and a heat mark or burn, on solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Digby
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Clean spills straight away
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Digby. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Digby questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Digby?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Normally one visit, start to finish
