About our worktop repair in Small Way
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We regularly repair quartz, laminate and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are a heat mark or burn and chips near the sink.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common problems we fix in Small Way
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A damaged sink edge
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips caused during installation
- Burns from hot pans
Before you book anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean spills immediately
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Small Way. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Small Way, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Landlord and trade work in Small Way
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What else we do in Small Way
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
