Worktop repair at your home in Lordswood
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. Common call-outs are for damage from fitting or building work and damage around the sink cut-out, across solid wood, quartz and laminate.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
When to call us in Lordswood
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- A chipped quartz edge
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Chipped corners
Before booking anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why Lordswood customers choose us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Work done at your home or business
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One visit for most repairs

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Lordswood, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Use a chopping board
- Re-oil timber worktops
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Lordswood: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
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, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
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. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
