Worktop repair in Whetsted without replacing anything
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s knife marks and gouges in the surface, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Whetsted
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Whetsted

For anyone letting property in or around Whetsted, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Whetsted
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
