What your worktop is made of matters

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Oreton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oreton
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Keep wood oiled
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Oreton questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Oreton. Prices do not change with location.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes, often. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
