Worktop Repair for Garden Suburb homes
Problem with your worktop in Garden Suburb? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Scratches and knife marks
- Chips on edges and corners
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Garden Suburb. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your OL8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use a chopping board
- Re-oil timber worktops
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
