What affects the price in Racecourse
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- The material
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Worktop repair in Racecourse, done in place
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz, and people most often call us about chipped corners and snagging damage in a new kitchen.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
FAQs for Racecourse
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

- Gouges in the surface
- Chips near the sink
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
If you manage property in Racecourse, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Keep wood oiled
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
