Worktop repair at your home in Upthorpe
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We’re often asked to fix a chipped quartz edge and scratches and knife marks, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and granite & marble.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
When to call us in Upthorpe
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks often begin.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- A heat mark or burn
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Damage from fitting or building work

FAQs for Upthorpe
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep joints and edges dry
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
