Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, with colour and pattern matched by hand. Nothing is taken out. Our repair technicians work on granite & marble, laminate and quartz, and the jobs we see most are gouges in the surface and chips on edges and corners.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Hougham, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Hougham: your questions answered
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Hougham?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hougham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently 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.
Common problems we fix in Hougham
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A heat mark or burn
- A chipped edge
- Gouges in the surface
- Damage to a stone worktop
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Aftercare advice
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Wipe up spills quickly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
