The process

- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Kirkpatrick Durham
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz

Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Kirkpatrick Durham questions
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Kirkpatrick Durham is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

What else we do in Kirkpatrick Durham
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
