Worktop repair at your home in Fareham
Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. If you’re dealing with gouges in the surface and chips near the sink, we can typically put it right, on granite & marble, laminate and solid wood alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Repairing versus replacing in Fareham
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One visit for most repairs
- We leave the room as we found it
Take a look at our full price list.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Questions from Fareham
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you come to Fareham?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Fareham and the rest of Hampshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Fareham included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Re-oil timber worktops
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
