How we handle worktop repair in Lauriston
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s a dent from a dropped pan and damage to a stone worktop, we can typically put it right, on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Your questions about worktop repair in Lauriston
Do you come to Lauriston?
We do. Technicians travel to Lauriston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How much does worktop repair cost in Lauriston?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid wood
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
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.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
