Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
