What we work on
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean spills right away
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Keep wood oiled
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Great Waltham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
