Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- 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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Skirling: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What else we do in Skirling
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
