Worktop repair in Ide without replacing anything
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We regularly repair quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are chipped corners and chips caused during installation.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ide. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Where you are, by postcode
Most customers in Ide get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What else we do in Ide
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
