Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Dry around the sink and joints
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Ilsington

Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire worktop
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
