How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most clients in Lawnswood 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.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Dry around the sink and joints
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Repairs by material
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, 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.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A top that moves on its units
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

FAQs for Lawnswood
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover Lawnswood?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lawnswood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Lawnswood
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
