DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our worktop repair in Greatworth
Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. If you are dealing with a heat mark or burn and a chipped edge, we can help.

Your questions about worktop repair in Greatworth
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Greatworth. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice
Common problems we fix in Greatworth
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Gouges in the surface
- Scorch marks from pans
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Damage around the sink cut-out
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
