About our worktop repair in Potter Hill
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We are frequently asked to fix scratches and knife marks and chips in quartz or granite, in solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate.

Common questions in Potter Hill
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Leicestershire.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
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.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Potter Hill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What affects the price in Potter Hill
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Failed support under the worktop
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Potter Hill
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
