What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Worktop repair in Runcton, done in place
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are chips in quartz or granite and chipped corners.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Runcton questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Re-oil timber worktops
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
