Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Read our pricing.

What affects the price in Lapal

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Lapal. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Clean spills right away

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Lapal

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your B62 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes, frequently. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Lapal and the rest of Dudley. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
