Worktop repair in Ebford, done in place
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s a chipped edge and damage from fitting or building work, we can help, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and solid wood alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

What else we do in Ebford
Ebford questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job without visiting.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Should you replace it?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ebford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
