How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price

Questions from Swanpool
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
When to call us in Swanpool
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scratches and knife marks
- Chips caused during installation
- Scorch marks from pans
- Damage to a stone worktop
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Swanpool
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
