Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. 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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What else we do in West Hoe
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
FAQs for West Hoe
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in West Hoe?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Normally. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Failed support under the worktop

Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Signs you need worktop repair in West Hoe
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A damaged sink edge
- A chipped edge
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Burns from hot pans

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
