Worktop repair in Plymtree, done in place
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Whether it’s chips caused during installation and a damaged sink edge, we can normally put it right, on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Plymtree, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep wood oiled
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Plymtree. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most customers in Plymtree get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

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. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Plymtree. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
