Worktop repair in Holmer, Herefordshire
Worktop repair across Holmer and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Knife marks
- A chipped edge
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Keep wood oiled
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Questions from Holmer
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Usually. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Common problems we fix in Holmer
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chipped corners
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Scorch marks from pans
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
- When it can be used again
- What happens if they find more damage
Repair or replace in Holmer?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A top that moves on its units
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Laminate
