Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in West Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
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.

We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, matching the colour and pattern by hand. The worktop stays in place. If you are dealing with damage to a stone worktop and chips on edges and corners, we can normally put it right.

Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Offington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Common problems we fix in Offington
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Chipped corners
- Dents and gouges
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Scratches and knife marks
Comparing quotes
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price covers travel
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Clean spills right away
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Use a chopping board
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
Common questions in Offington
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Offington?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
