DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thorpe Langton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep wood oiled
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thorpe Langton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire worktop
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Thorpe Langton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Water-swollen laminate
- A top that moves on its units
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
