Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Clean spills right away
- Keep joints and edges dry
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Questions from Lower Clent
I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
Are there extra charges for Lower Clent?

Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Repair or replace in Lower Clent?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Lower Clent. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DY9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
