Worktop repair in Harray without replacing anything
Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. We work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are dents and gouges and snagging damage in a new kitchen.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Harray
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Harray
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Scratches and knife marks
- Damage from fitting or building work
- A chipped edge
- Gouges in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Harray. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
