Should you replace it?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Worktop repair at your home in Shieldhill
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people contact us are a dent from a dropped pan and scratches and knife marks.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Shieldhill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach

How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

What else we do in Shieldhill
Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Keep joints and edges dry
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
