Worktop repair in Ovington without replacing anything
We repair worktops in place, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We’re frequently asked to fix snagging damage in a new kitchen and chips in quartz or granite, in granite & marble, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole worktop
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What else we do in Ovington
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use a chopping board
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
What we are called out for in Ovington
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- A chipped quartz edge
- Chips caused during installation
- Scratches and knife marks
- Burns from hot pans
Before you book anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How soon you can use it again

Questions from Ovington
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
