Worktop repair in Holcombe, done in place
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are a dent from a dropped pan and cuts and scratches in the surface.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Holcombe
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How much does worktop repair cost in Holcombe?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you need worktop repair in Holcombe?
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- A heat mark or burn
- A damaged sink edge
- Chips on edges and corners
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
