The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.

- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit

Repairs by material
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Should you replace it?
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. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What else we do in Dockeney
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dockeney. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Do you need worktop repair in Dockeney?
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
Common reasons people in Dockeney contact us are:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Knife marks
- Scorch marks from pans
- Chips near the sink
Before booking anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Failed support under the worktop
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
