About our worktop repair in Heddle
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We’re often asked to fix a chipped quartz edge and a dent from a dropped pan, on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Should you replace it?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Heddle: your questions answered
How much does worktop repair cost in Heddle?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
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’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- 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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Get a quote
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. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
