Worktop repair in Longden Common, done in place
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and people most often call us about chips near the sink and scratches and knife marks.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Longden Common
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
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.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
