Worktop repair in Throop without replacing anything
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We regularly repair quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about a dent from a dropped pan and a heat mark or burn.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Throop: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are there extra charges for Throop?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
What affects the price in Throop
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BH8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
