How we handle worktop repair in Newney Green
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. If you are dealing with dents and gouges and damage to a stone worktop, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Clean spills straight away
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
