How we handle worktop repair in Harraby
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. If you are dealing with cuts and scratches in the surface and damage from fitting or building work, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Common questions in Harraby
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Do you do work for letting agents?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Use a chopping board
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Repairs by material
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
