About our worktop repair in Smithy Bridge
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We are often asked to fix a damaged sink edge and scratches and knife marks, across solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A top that moves on its units
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Can I fix it myself?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
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 will not last.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Repairing versus replacing in Smithy Bridge
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
