Chips in speckled granite tiles filled and colour matched, before and after

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repair or replace in Rapps?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why book with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

Read our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Rapps. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Rapps

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Rapps?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, frequently. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.
