DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How we handle worktop repair in Spike Island
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new kitchen and a dent from a dropped pan, we can usually put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Spike Island and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Repair or replace in Spike Island?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Spike Island, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Dry around the sink and joints
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Common questions in Spike Island
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Normally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you cover the entire of Bristol?
The entire UK, including all of Bristol. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
