About our worktop repair in Longport
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Common call-outs are for chips near the sink and chips on edges and corners, on granite & marble, quartz and solid wood.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid wood
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole worktop
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

FAQs for Longport
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Are there extra charges for Longport?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
What we’re called out for in Longport
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Chips near the sink
- A chipped edge
- A chipped quartz edge
- A heat mark or burn
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Dry around the sink and joints
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
