Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Worktop repair at your home in Torquay
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. If you’re dealing with damage from fitting or building work and chips near the sink, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Torquay
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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’s unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
