About our worktop repair in Upper Biggin
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and the jobs we see most are gouges in the surface and cuts and scratches in the surface.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

When to call us in Upper Biggin

Questions to ask before booking

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Use a chopping board
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Common questions in Upper Biggin
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
