Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Worktop repair in Welham 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. We are often asked to fix a dent from a dropped pan and a chipped edge, in laminate, solid wood and granite & marble.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Use a chopping board
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Welham
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
