Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

What affects the price in Ringmer
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
FAQs for Ringmer
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Ringmer and the rest of East Sussex. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Common problems we fix in Ringmer

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Clean spills straight away
- Never put hot pans down directly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
