How we handle worktop repair in Kingholm Quay
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Typical jobs include damage around the sink cut-out and chipped corners, on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Kingholm Quay and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use a chopping board
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Re-oil timber worktops
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A top that moves on its units
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Granite & marble

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.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
FAQs for Kingholm Quay
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Kingholm Quay. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you are in Kingholm Quay and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlord and trade work in Kingholm Quay
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.
