Worktop repair in Poundon without replacing anything
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Our technicians work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and people most frequently call us about gouges in the surface and damage from fitting or building work.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- 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.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
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. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Questions from Poundon
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Poundon.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
When to call us in Poundon
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips often start there.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Gouges in the surface
- Scorch marks from pans
- A chipped edge
Before booking anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Clean spills straight away
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
