Worktop repair at your home in Portskewett
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We regularly repair quartz, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people contact us are a dent from a dropped pan and scorch marks from pans.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Portskewett
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When to call us in Portskewett
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A damaged sink edge
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Chips on edges and corners
- Damage to a stone worktop

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Portskewett: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Portskewett.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Keep wood oiled
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire worktop
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
