Worktop repair in Peterstow without replacing anything
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Whether it’s scorch marks from pans and gouges in the surface, we can usually put it right, on granite & marble, laminate and solid wood alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Peterstow: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How much does worktop repair cost in Peterstow?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Peterstow
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
