Worktop repair in Waltham without replacing anything
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. Whether it’s chips on edges and corners and snagging damage in a new kitchen, we can typically put it right, on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Waltham questions
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Normally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
