About our worktop repair in Longham
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We are frequently asked to fix damage to a stone worktop and a dent from a dropped pan, across solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and granite & marble.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Longham
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Questions from Longham
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
How much does worktop repair cost in Longham?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Longham
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
