Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Stanton Chare clients choose us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour-matched on site

Questions from Stanton Chare
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Usually. A photo lets us check.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you need worktop repair in Stanton Chare?
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Knife marks
- Burns from hot pans
- Chips near the sink
- A chipped quartz edge
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
