Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Solid wood
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CA4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Questions from Southwaite
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Southwaite?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
When to call us in Southwaite
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Burns from hot pans
- Chips on edges and corners
- Chips caused during installation
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- How to care for the finish
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Clean spills straight away
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
