DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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.
Worktop repair in Merrivale, done in place
Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. We are often asked to fix scorch marks from pans and a dent from a dropped pan, on granite & marble, solid wood and laminate.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Merrivale

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep wood oiled
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Common questions in Merrivale
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Merrivale?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
