About our worktop repair in Forest Side
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. If you are dealing with cuts and scratches in the surface and chipped corners, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Forest Side, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
FAQs for Forest Side
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you cover the whole of Isle of Wight?
Everywhere in the UK, Forest Side included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Forest Side.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep wood oiled
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
