What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Never put hot pans down directly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Signs you need worktop repair in Portslade
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips on edges and corners
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- A damaged sink edge

What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
If you’re in Portslade and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repairs by material
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Repairing versus replacing in Portslade
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
