DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Hawkchurch
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Common problems we fix in Hawkchurch
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches and knife marks
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Chips in quartz or granite

The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Hawkchurch, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Generally. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.
