How we handle worktop repair in Ridge
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We are frequently asked to fix gouges in the surface and scratches and knife marks, across granite & marble, laminate and solid wood.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ridge and across Hertfordshire.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ridge. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Clean spills right away
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Re-oil timber worktops
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Repairing versus replacing in Ridge
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
