Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Use a chopping board
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
