About our worktop repair in Marden
Different worktops need different repairs: 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. We work on laminate, solid wood and quartz, and people most often call us about a dent from a dropped pan and chips near the sink.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep wood oiled
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
