For landlords and businesses

Stone: your questions answered
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you come to Stone?
We do. Technicians travel to Stone from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- 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.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Repair or replace in Stone?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
