- Repairs from £95
- Scratches and knife marks

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job without visiting.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
