Worktop repair in Stroat, done in place
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate and quartz, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused during installation and scorch marks from pans.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Stroat
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise 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.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairing versus replacing in Stroat
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Questions from Stroat
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Stroat and the rest of Monmouthshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Do you come to Stroat?
We do. We send a technician to Stroat for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Laminate
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Use a chopping board
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. Repairing it early stops that.
