Repairing versus replacing in Walby
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- We leave the room as we found it
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- One price list for the entire UK

Worktop repair at your home in Walby
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for a chipped quartz edge and damage around the sink cut-out, across granite & marble, solid wood and laminate.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Questions from Walby
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
