Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Kirby-le-Soken, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Kirby-le-Soken get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Keep joints and edges dry
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
