Worktop Repair for Thorpe Acre homes
Chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops at your home in Thorpe Acre, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Gouges in the surface
- A heat mark or burn

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Worktop repair in Thorpe Acre without replacing anything
Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. Whether it’s a chipped edge and gouges in the surface, we can help, on quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thorpe Acre and across Leicestershire.

Landlord and trade work in Thorpe Acre
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Thorpe Acre. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire worktop
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A top that moves on its units
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Clean spills immediately
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
