Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement 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. The price 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 quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
When to call us in Hartest
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips frequently start there.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Chips caused during installation
- Scorch marks from pans
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Hartest
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hartest use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
