Worktop repair in Littlebourne without replacing anything

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Common call-outs are for scorch marks from pans and chipped corners, in solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Keep wood oiled

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

FAQs for Littlebourne

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Repair or replace in Littlebourne?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts 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.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Quartz

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common problems we fix in Littlebourne

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Scratches and knife marks

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
