About our worktop repair in Tunstall
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. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz, and people most frequently call us about scratches and knife marks and chipped corners.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole worktop
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Before you book anyone

What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tunstall. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
