How we handle worktop repair in Netley
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Our repair technicians work on laminate, solid wood and quartz, and the jobs we see most are scratches and knife marks and damage around the sink cut-out.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Netley
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Keep wood oiled
- Dry around the sink and joints
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Can you repair several things at once?
