DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Worktop repair in King's Stag, done in place
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during installation and a dent from a dropped pan.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A top that moves on its units
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
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. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean spills right away
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Use a chopping board
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in King's Stag use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
