Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Work done at your home or business
- A fixed quote before you book

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Lawrence use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Clean spills right away
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
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.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Common problems we fix in St Lawrence
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.
Look out for these signs:
- Scratches and knife marks
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Dents and gouges

St Lawrence: your questions answered
How much do I need to move?
Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including St Lawrence. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
