Worktop repair at your home in Ireshopeburn
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s scorch marks from pans and damage from fitting or building work, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Common problems we fix in Ireshopeburn
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Your questions about worktop repair in Ireshopeburn
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you cover the whole of County Durham?
Across the UK, so Ireshopeburn is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Failed support under the worktop
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What affects the price in Ireshopeburn
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
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.
