Worktop Repair in Matching Tye
Chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops in Matching Tye, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Damage to a stone worktop
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Clean spills immediately
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Worktop repair at your home in Matching Tye
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. If you are dealing with a damaged sink edge and a heat mark or burn, we can normally put it right, on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Typically. A picture lets us check.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you come to Matching Tye?

Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Matching Tye.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Water-swollen laminate
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

What else we do in Matching Tye
Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How it works
When we visit, 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 let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Comparing quotes
- Aftercare advice
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
