Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Makeney. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Makeney. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Repairing versus replacing in Makeney
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the entire UK
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
Take a look at our prices page.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How much does worktop repair cost in Makeney?

Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
