DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Worktop repair in South Moreton without replacing anything
Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. Whether it’s a damaged sink edge and a chipped edge, we can usually put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
What we’re called out for in South Moreton
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Knife marks
- Gouges in the surface
Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
What affects the price in South Moreton
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for South Moreton. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use a chopping board
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Do not let water sit on joints
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
