Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Kingsthorpe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep wood oiled
- Clean spills right away
- Use a chopping board
- Dry around the sink and joints
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What we’re called out for in Kingsthorpe
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips often start there.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chipped corners
- A chipped quartz edge
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- A dent from a dropped pan
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Generally. A photo lets us check.
Do I have to be there?
