Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Worktop repair at your home in Hiltingbury
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We work on granite & marble, laminate and quartz, and the jobs we see most are chips in quartz or granite and snagging damage in a new kitchen.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What else we do in Hiltingbury
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. 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 price.

FAQs for Hiltingbury
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Generally. Send us a photo and we will tell you.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
