Worktop repair in St Nicholas, done in place
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and laminate, and people most often call us about chips on edges and corners and cuts and scratches in the surface.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including St Nicholas. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for St Nicholas. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most clients in St Nicholas get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Fixed prices from your pictures

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
