What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Should you replace it?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common questions in Marchington Woodlands
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?
The whole UK, including all of Staffordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How much does worktop repair cost in Marchington Woodlands?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ST14 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Do you need worktop repair in Marchington Woodlands?
Edges and corners chip most frequently, often when something heavy catches the edge.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips near the sink
- Scratches and knife marks
- Chips caused during installation

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
