DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Stenhouse questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Signs you need worktop repair in Stenhouse
Edges and corners chip most frequently, often when something heavy catches the edge.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A heat mark or burn
- A chipped quartz edge
- Knife marks
- Dents and gouges
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
See our pricing.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
