Worktop repair at your home in Jacob's Post
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We’re often asked to fix a damaged sink edge and chips on edges and corners, across solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
How much does worktop repair cost in Jacob's Post?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Signs you need worktop repair in Jacob's Post
Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Gouges in the surface
- Scratches and knife marks
Comparing quotes
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Jacob's Post
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Landlord and trade work in Jacob's Post
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Jacob's Post. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
