Worktop repair in Ramshaw, County Durham
We travel to Ramshaw for chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Dents and gouges
- Scratches and knife marks
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
How we handle worktop repair in Ramshaw
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We are frequently asked to fix chips on edges and corners and a damaged sink edge, on solid wood, laminate and granite & marble.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham.

When to call us in Ramshaw
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Damage from fitting or building work
- A chipped edge
- Damage around the sink cut-out
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- What preparation is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- A top that moves on its units
- Water-swollen laminate
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Related advice
Ramshaw: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Usually. Send us a picture and we will tell you.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
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.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
