DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kilnhurst questions
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Kilnhurst included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Do you work in Kilnhurst?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Kilnhurst from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Quartz
When to call us in Kilnhurst
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Knife marks

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.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
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 matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
