Common problems we fix in Horcott
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Gouges in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- A chipped quartz edge
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How to care for the finish
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep wood oiled
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Repairing versus replacing in Horcott
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Common questions in Horcott
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are there extra charges for Horcott?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Failed support under the worktop
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
