Worktop repair in Upton, Cumbria
We travel to Upton for chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Worktop repair at your home in Upton
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Typical jobs include chips near the sink and chips on edges and corners, across solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and granite & marble.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A top that moves on its units
- Water-swollen laminate
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
