Worktop repair in White Stone without replacing anything
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We regularly repair solid wood, granite & marble and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are burns from hot pans and a damaged sink edge.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your HR1 postcode.

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Landlord and trade work in White Stone
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
