Worktop repair in Stanstead Abbotts, done in place
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We work on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage in a new kitchen and damage to a stone worktop.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

When to call us in Stanstead Abbotts
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Chipped corners
- Scorch marks from pans
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Chips near the sink
Before booking anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use a chopping board
- Keep joints and edges dry
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
