How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Oil wooden tops regularly
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.

- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Water-swollen laminate
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
