DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When to call us in Dunbridge
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Scorch marks from pans
- Knife marks
- A chipped edge
- Dents and gouges
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Questions from Dunbridge
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean spills immediately
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
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.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Water-swollen laminate
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
