Worktop repair across Leafield and nearby, typically in one visit.
- Repairs from £95

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our worktop repair in Leafield
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include damage around the sink cut-out and scorch marks from pans, across laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

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. Prices start from £95. 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.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
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 burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
