How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Common questions in Tingwall
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KW17 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tingwall
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
