Worktop repair in Norwich, done in place
Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. Whether it’s cuts and scratches in the surface and gouges in the surface, we can generally put it right, on granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Re-oil timber worktops
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Granite & marble

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole worktop
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Norwich
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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
