How we handle worktop repair in Tinwald
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We regularly repair quartz, solid wood and granite & marble, and common reasons people contact us are damage to a stone worktop and snagging damage in a new kitchen.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Keep wood oiled
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Tinwald. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
