About our worktop repair in Thornhaugh
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We regularly repair laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most frequently call us about chipped corners and a heat mark or burn.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thornhaugh and across Northamptonshire.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Use a chopping board
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by checking 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.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer
