About our worktop repair in Wistanstow
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include chipped corners and dents and gouges, across solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Your questions about worktop repair in Wistanstow
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Wistanstow?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Wistanstow get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
