How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Thinford. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
About our worktop repair in Thinford
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Common call-outs are for burns from hot pans and gouges in the surface, in quartz, granite & marble and laminate.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Thinford
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- 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.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
What we are called out for in Thinford
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Gouges in the surface
- A chipped edge
- A damaged sink edge
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether they match the colour on site

What else we do in Thinford
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep joints and edges dry
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
