- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Discolouration deep in quartz
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Worktop repair at your home in Sutton
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: 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. Whether it’s scratches and knife marks and gouges in the surface, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sutton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Why repair rather than replace?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
FAQs for Sutton
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
