About our worktop repair in Fitzhead
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Our technicians work on quartz, laminate and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chips on edges and corners and a damaged sink edge.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What else we do in Fitzhead
What affects the price in Fitzhead
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Fitzhead. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, 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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Should you replace it?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Fitzhead: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep wood oiled
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Do not let water sit on joints
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
