Worktop repair in West Stour without replacing anything

Different worktops need different repairs: 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. Typical jobs include chips caused during installation and gouges in the surface, in solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our pricing.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood

Questions from West Stour

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are there extra charges for West Stour?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Clean spills right away
  • Keep wood oiled

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
