About our worktop repair in Forder
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Common call-outs are for dents and gouges and chips in quartz or granite, on laminate, solid wood and granite & marble.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
For anyone letting property in or around Forder, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
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. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Forder. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Work done at your home or business
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- No extra charge for your area

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
If you’re in Forder and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Forder questions
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are there extra charges for Forder?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
