Why repair rather than replace?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dogslacks. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Worktop repair in Dogslacks, done in place
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include a dent from a dropped pan and burns from hot pans, across solid wood, quartz and laminate.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

- Dents and gouges
- Chips on edges and corners
- Scratches and knife marks

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
