How we handle worktop repair in Stonymarsh

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We regularly repair solid wood, quartz and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are dents and gouges and scratches and knife marks.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Clean spills immediately

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Common problems we fix in Stonymarsh

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Stonymarsh

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Your questions about worktop repair in Stonymarsh

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we will tell you.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?

The whole UK, including all of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
