Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Worktop repair in Skircoat Green without replacing anything
Different worktops need different repairs: 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. We are frequently asked to fix a damaged sink edge and damage from fitting or building work, across laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz

Advice
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep wood oiled
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
