What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Questions from Riddlesdown
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you cover the entire of Greater London?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
