About our worktop repair in Lighthorne
We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, matching the colour and pattern by hand. Nothing is taken out. We regularly repair granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are burns from hot pans and chipped corners.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
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.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Laminate

How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lighthorne
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
