About our worktop repair in Gargrave
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We work on granite & marble, solid wood and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged sink edge and dents and gouges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate

Gargrave questions
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Gargrave. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How much do I need to move?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What we are called out for in Gargrave
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chipped corners
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Scratches and knife marks

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Keep wood oiled
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
