About our worktop repair in Hassocks
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are a heat mark or burn and dents and gouges.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A top that moves on its units
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common questions in Hassocks
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Do you come to Hassocks?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Hassocks from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Hassocks. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit

- Unusual colours or finishes
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
