About our worktop repair in Smithfield
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We work on quartz, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people get in touch are damage to a stone worktop and knife marks.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Clean spills straight away
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Use a chopping board
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Smithfield
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
