Worktop repair in Housham Tye without replacing anything
Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for scorch marks from pans and chips caused during installation, in solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Quartz
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CM17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
