About our worktop repair in Kaimend
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on laminate, quartz and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are gouges in the surface and chipped corners.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Solid wood

Advice
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Re-oil timber worktops
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
What we are called out for in Kaimend
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
Look out for any of the following:
- Knife marks
- A chipped quartz edge
- Chips near the sink
- Gouges in the surface
Questions to ask before booking
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price covers travel
Repair or replace in Kaimend?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
