How we handle worktop repair in Florence
We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We regularly repair laminate, solid wood and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are damage to a stone worktop and dents and gouges.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Stoke-on-Trent.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Florence. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Failed support under the worktop

Covering Florence
Florence is about 1 mile south of Longton, in Stoke-on-Trent. Whether you are in the middle of Florence or on the outskirts, the service is the same: a fixed quote, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Florence is one of 59 towns and villages in Stoke-on-Trent we cover. You can also see our page for Manchester, about 35 miles away.
Jobs in ST3 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. Local streets include Suffolk Road, Cocknage Road and Woodpark Lane, all of which we cover. Florence is on the A5005, which makes it straightforward to reach. Other places close to Florence include Normacot (1 mile east), Lightwood (1 mile east), Dresden (1 mile north-west), Meir (1 mile north-east) and Longton (1 mile north). We also work in nearby towns such as Stoke-on-Trent (4 miles north-west), Hanley (4 miles north-west), Burslem (6 miles north-west), Stoke-upon-Trent (3 miles north-west), Tunstall (7 miles north-west) and Smallthorne (6 miles north).
Around Florence
Our customers here include homes close to Church of the Resurrection, Belgrave St Bartholomew's Academy and Sandon High School. For rail, the closest station is Longton station, about 1.4 miles north. Further afield, we also cover the area around Beswick Museum (1 mile east) and North Staffordshire Royal Infirmary (3.8 miles north-west). For a walk, there’s Hem Heath Woods.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Florence questions
How much does worktop repair cost in Florence?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
How much do I need to move?
Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you work in Florence?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Florence and the rest of Stoke-on-Trent. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What affects the price in Florence
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Florence. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
