Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
For anyone letting property in or around Woodlands, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean spills right away
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Discolouration deep in quartz
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Woodlands
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
