Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
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 without visiting.

What affects the price in Etchinghill
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Etchinghill. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Landlord and trade work in Etchinghill
If you manage property in Etchinghill, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common questions in Etchinghill
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Are there extra charges for Etchinghill?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Repair or replace in Etchinghill?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Etchinghill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
