Worktop repair at your home in Wreay
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble, and people most frequently call us about a chipped quartz edge and a heat mark or burn.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Your questions about worktop repair in Wreay
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you work in Wreay?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Wreay and the rest of Cumbria. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Wreay?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep wood oiled
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Never put hot pans down directly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Advice
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Wreay
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
When to call us in Wreay
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

- Dents and gouges
- A heat mark or burn
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Chipped corners
Before booking anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Wreay. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole worktop
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
