- 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.
Before we arrive

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Maldon questions
Do you cover Maldon?
We do. We send a technician to Maldon for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Wipe up spills quickly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Common problems we fix in Maldon
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Gouges in the surface
- Scratches and knife marks
- Damage to a stone worktop
- A damaged sink edge
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched

- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
