Worktop repair in Tostock, Suffolk
Our technicians come to Tostock for chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped edge
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Worktop repair in Tostock, done in place
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We are frequently asked to fix scratches and knife marks and chipped corners, across solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Tostock questions
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Tostock. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

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.
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.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
What affects the price in Tostock
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Tostock. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
