Worktop repair at your home in Stretton
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We are often asked to fix damage from fitting or building work and chips on edges and corners, across solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Failed support under the worktop
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Surfaces we repair

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Repair or replace in Stretton?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Stretton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
