Worktop repair in Houston without replacing anything
Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. Our technicians work on solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about chipped corners and chips caused during installation.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Questions from Houston

Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Houston. Prices do not change with location.
How do I book?

Do you work in Houston?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Houston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Houston. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Houston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
If you’re in Houston and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- 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.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
