We repair worktops in place, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We work on granite & marble, laminate and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are a heat mark or burn and damage around the sink cut-out.

Forest Corner questions
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Forest Corner and the rest of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Generally. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.
Landlord and trade work in Forest Corner
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Forest Corner use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Never put hot pans down directly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
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. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How it 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 morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- 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
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
