How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tarves. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire worktop
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Tarves, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Tarves
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are there extra charges for Tarves?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Dry around the sink and joints
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we are called out for in Tarves
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Dents and gouges
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- A chipped quartz edge
- Damage from fitting or building work
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price covers travel
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
