How we handle worktop repair in Yatts
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for burns from hot pans and damage to a stone worktop, on laminate, solid wood and quartz.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Repairing versus replacing in Yatts
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Yatts. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Advice
FAQs for Yatts
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Usually. A photo lets us check.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep wood oiled
- Use a chopping board
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire worktop
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your YO18 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
