How we handle worktop repair in Gembling
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz, and people most often call us about damage to a stone worktop and snagging damage in a new kitchen.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Use a chopping board
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Common questions in Gembling
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Gembling, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
What affects the price in Gembling
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A top that moves on its units
