About our worktop repair in Ireleth
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We are frequently asked to fix damage around the sink cut-out and gouges in the surface, on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a chopping board
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Ireleth
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
