Worktop repair in Forss, done in place
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. Our technicians work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped quartz edge and a chipped edge.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Repairs by material
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole worktop
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
When to call us in Forss
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips frequently start there.
Look out for these signs:
- A heat mark or burn
- Scratches and knife marks
- Chips on edges and corners
- Damage to a stone worktop

Common questions in Forss
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
