How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Signs you need worktop repair in Martin

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A heat mark or burn
  • A damaged sink edge
  • A chipped quartz edge

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Water-swollen laminate

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Quartz
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Martin. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price.

Your questions about worktop repair in Martin

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you come to Martin?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Martin and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Martin

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: 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.
