Worktop repair in Ugley, done in place
We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are chips near the sink and damage to a stone worktop.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Severe heat marks in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Laminate
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CM22 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ugley
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not let water sit on joints
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Do you need worktop repair in Ugley?
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Related advice
Ugley questions
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Same prices wherever you are
- Work done at your home or business
