How we handle worktop repair in Hampstead Norreys
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We’re often asked to fix damage around the sink cut-out and a dent from a dropped pan, in quartz, laminate and granite & marble.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Clean spills right away
- Dry around the sink and joints
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A top that moves on its units
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Hampstead Norreys questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Hampstead Norreys?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
