What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gileston
If you manage property in Gileston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
