DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we handle worktop repair in Gorsley Common
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We are often asked to fix scorch marks from pans and a dent from a dropped pan, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and laminate.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Herefordshire.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Clean spills immediately
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Common questions in Gorsley Common
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
