How we handle worktop repair in Royton
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Common call-outs are for chips caused during installation and chips on edges and corners, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a chopping board
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
