How we handle worktop repair in Sinfin
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. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are knife marks and snagging damage in a new kitchen.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Sinfin. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
