Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use a chopping board
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Mount Pleasant: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
