Worktop repair in Old Sodbury without replacing anything
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Our repair technicians work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and people most often call us about damage to a stone worktop and chips caused during installation.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

When to call us in Old Sodbury
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips caused during installation
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips on edges and corners
- A chipped quartz edge
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Old Sodbury questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Are there extra charges for Old Sodbury?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Old Sodbury
Letting agents often 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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Sodbury use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
