How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Guestwick, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
What affects the price in Guestwick
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Guestwick
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
