Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Maiden Law
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
How we handle worktop repair in Maiden Law
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. If you’re dealing with damage to a stone worktop and cuts and scratches in the surface, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Never put hot pans down directly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
What we’re called out for in Maiden Law
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Dents and gouges
- Scratches and knife marks
- A damaged sink edge

Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Fixed prices from your photos
