Can you repair a laminate worktop chip?

Yes. We repair chips, cracks, burns and delamination on laminate worktops and colour-match the repair to your existing surface pattern and texture.

Can you repair a burn or scorch mark on a worktop?

Yes. Heat damage from pans, irons and other hot objects is one of the most common worktop repairs we carry out. We remove the discolouration, rebuild the surface profile and colour-match it to the surrounding area.

Can you repair a cracked granite worktop?

Yes. Granite cracks and chips are repaired using colour-matched compounds that complement the natural stone pattern. Most granite repairs are invisible under normal kitchen lighting.

How much does a worktop repair cost?

Most worktop chip and scratch repairs cost significantly less than a full replacement. A granite or stone worktop replacement can run to thousands of pounds installed — a professional repair is a fraction of that. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote.

How long does a worktop repair take?

The majority of worktop repairs are completed in a single visit, typically taking between one and three hours depending on the extent of the damage.

Do I need to empty my kitchen for a worktop repair?

No. We work around your kitchen contents. You just need to ensure the worktop surface immediately around the damage is clear and accessible.

Can you repair a worktop damaged during a renovation?

Yes. Renovation and builder damage — chips, scratches and marks caused by tradespeople working in your kitchen — is one of the most common reasons homeowners contact us.

Will the repair be noticeable?

In the vast majority of cases, no. A professionally executed colour-match and repair is indistinguishable from the original surface under normal viewing conditions. We always assess the repair from multiple angles in different lighting before leaving.

Can you repair a Corian or solid surface worktop?

Yes. Solid surface worktops such as Corian are repaired and colour-matched. These materials are actually well-suited to repair as the colour and pattern run through the full depth of the material.

A single chip, scratch or burn on a worktop rarely means the whole surface needs replacing — yet many homeowners are quoted thousands to rip out and refit their kitchen. At FinishWise we repair the damaged area in place, carefully rebuilding the surface and colour-matching it to blend seamlessly with the surrounding worktop.

We work on granite, stone, laminate, solid surface (Corian-style) and wood worktops, tackling impact chips, deep scratches, iron and pan burns, cracked corners and failed joints. Most repairs are completed in a single visit, with minimal disruption to your kitchen.

Whether the damage was caused during installation, by a dropped pan, or through years of everyday wear, our repairs are designed to be invisible and hard-wearing. It is the smart, cost-effective alternative to replacement — and far kinder to the environment.

Worktop repairs typically cost a fraction of full replacement. Most jobs are completed in a single visit, saving you thousands compared to a new kitchen worktop installation. A granite or stone worktop replacement can cost £1,000–£3,000 installed — a professional repair costs a fraction of that.

Repair vs. replace — why it makes sense

Before spending thousands on replacement, consider what a professional cosmetic repair actually delivers.

Granite worktops are natural stone and each slab is unique, which makes colour matching more involved. We work with the natural variation in the stone, blending the repair compound to complement the veining and mineral patterns in your specific piece. The result is invisible under normal kitchen lighting.

Laminate worktops are the most commonly damaged surface in UK kitchens and also one of the most cost-effective to repair. Chips, burns and edge delamination are all addressed in a single visit. We can also repair the swollen or lifting edges that often appear around sinks and hobs where moisture has got in.
