Worktop repair at your home in Powderhall
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and solid wood, and people most often call us about chips near the sink and chipped corners.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Powderhall
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Powderhall.
Do you come to Powderhall?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Powderhall. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Repair or replace in Powderhall?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Powderhall. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use a chopping board
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Wipe up spills quickly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
