How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE16 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

What else we do in Gumley
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Your questions about worktop repair in Gumley
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Gumley?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Use a chopping board
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote

- Damage from fitting or building work
- Dents and gouges
