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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Worktop repair in Fulwood, done in place
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for a chipped quartz edge and a heat mark or burn, on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fulwood as everywhere else we work.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A top that moves on its units
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood

What else we do in Fulwood
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Clean spills straight away
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Fulwood: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Are there extra charges for Fulwood?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
