About our worktop repair in Shorne
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We regularly repair solid wood, granite & marble and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are burns from hot pans and knife marks.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Questions from Shorne
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Generally. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Clean spills immediately
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Landlord and trade work in Shorne
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Common problems we fix in Shorne
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A damaged sink edge
- A heat mark or burn
- Gouges in the surface
- Knife marks
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who will actually do the work
- How the room is protected while they work

Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shorne. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
