Worktop repair in Thornton Watlass, done in place
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: 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 work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz, and people most frequently call us about chips caused during installation and chips near the sink.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Thornton Watlass questions
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
