Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wharton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Laminate
Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When to call us in Wharton
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips frequently start there.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Chips on edges and corners
- A chipped quartz edge
- Damage around the sink cut-out

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wharton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep wood oiled
- Wipe up spills quickly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Questions from Wharton
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are there extra charges for Wharton?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
