About our worktop repair in Gadlys
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with chips near the sink and damage to a stone worktop, we can help, on solid wood, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Use a chopping board
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you come to Gadlys?
We do. We send a technician to Gadlys for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
Also in Gadlys
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Should you replace it?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
