How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Highlane. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole worktop
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
How we handle worktop repair in Highlane
We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new kitchen and cuts and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, 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.

Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep wood oiled
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Clean spills immediately
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
