About our worktop repair in Farnborough
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and common reasons people contact us are burns from hot pans and damage from fitting or building work.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Farnborough questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How much do I need to move?
Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
