Stocklinch: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Stocklinch?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid wood
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Never put hot pans down directly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Should you replace it?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
