Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairs by material
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

- Laminate that has blown or swollen

- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Use a chopping board
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Should you replace it?
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. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
