DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Tai-Bach: your questions answered
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Should you replace it?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep wood oiled
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
