Worktop repair in Larkbeare without replacing anything
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We are frequently asked to fix scorch marks from pans and chips on edges and corners, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and solid wood.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Larkbeare as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Repairs by material
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Clean spills right away
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
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. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found 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.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
