About our worktop repair in Upper Town

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are damage from fitting or building work and chips near the sink.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble

Repairing versus replacing in Upper Town

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

FAQs for Upper Town

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your 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.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Use a chopping board
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
