Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches are the most common worktop repairs. We repair them all in your kitchen. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and solid wood, and people most often call us about chips in quartz or granite and damage from fitting or building work.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Your questions about worktop repair in Nettlesworth

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How much does worktop repair cost in Nettlesworth?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you cover the whole of County Durham?
Across the UK, and that includes Nettlesworth. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you come to Nettlesworth?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Nettlesworth and the rest of County Durham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nettlesworth
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.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Nettlesworth. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
