Worktop repair in Hinxton without replacing anything
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate, and the jobs we see most are a chipped quartz edge and chips on edges and corners.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Hinxton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Common questions in Hinxton
Do you work in Hinxton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hinxton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover the entire of Essex?
We work UK-wide, so Hinxton is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Use a chopping board
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Repairing versus replacing in Hinxton
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colour mixed on the day to match
