DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What else we do in Midway
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Midway, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
Midway: your questions answered
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover Midway?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Midway for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
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.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Keep wood oiled
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Should you replace it?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
