How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire worktop
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you’re in Lyford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Do you need worktop repair in Lyford?
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Knife marks
- Dents and gouges
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Questions from Lyford
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much does worktop repair cost in Lyford?
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.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Oxfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
