Worktop repair in Sandhurst without replacing anything
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. If you’re dealing with chips caused during installation and dents and gouges, we can typically put it right, on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

FAQs for Sandhurst
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use a chopping board
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
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 to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
