About our worktop repair in Johnstown
Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Whether it’s chips near the sink and chips in quartz or granite, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Johnstown and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Johnstown questions
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you come to Johnstown?
We do. We send a technician to Johnstown for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Johnstown. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What else we do in Johnstown
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
