Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KW14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Repairing versus replacing in Portskerra
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Portskerra. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
