DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Worktop repair in Gilley Law without replacing anything
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for burns from hot pans and gouges in the surface, in laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What affects the price in Gilley Law
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Gilley Law. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire worktop
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
