Worktop repair in Rookhope without replacing anything
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and people most often call us about damage around the sink cut-out and knife marks.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire worktop
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
When a repair is not the answer
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
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Clean spills straight away
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Keep wood oiled
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
