How we handle worktop repair in Irby Hill
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We are frequently asked to fix chips near the sink and knife marks, in granite & marble, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Irby Hill, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Your questions about worktop repair in Irby Hill
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you work in Irby Hill?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Irby Hill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Irby Hill?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean spills straight away
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
