Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
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.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Repairs by material
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When to call us in Yarrowford
Edges and corners chip most frequently, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Scorch marks from pans

- Chips in quartz or granite
Before booking anyone

When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Yarrowford questions
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Do you cover Yarrowford?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Yarrowford. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
