Worktop repair in Steel Cross, done in place
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We’re frequently asked to fix gouges in the surface and chips on edges and corners, across quartz, solid wood and laminate.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TN6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Common questions in Steel Cross
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
