A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. If you are dealing with a damaged sink edge and scratches and knife marks, 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.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Advice
Questions from Woodend
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Woodend. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are there extra charges for Woodend?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Woodend. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common problems we fix in Woodend
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Dents and gouges
- Scorch marks from pans
- Chipped corners
- A chipped quartz edge
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- How changes to the job are handled
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
