Worktop repair for Smallbridge homes

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

About our worktop repair in Smallbridge

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. If you are dealing with a heat mark or burn and chips in quartz or granite, we can normally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our prices page.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OL12 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
