Kitchen Worktop Repair & Restoration Specialists
Surrey & Hampshire's Only Dedicated Worktop Specialists
Most cosmetic repair companies carry a tin of resin and a colour chart. They fix chips, collect their fee, and move on. Repair and Restore is different.
With over 20 years of specialist experience, we are the only dedicated worktop repair and restoration company serving Surrey, Hampshire, and Berkshire — covering every major worktop material, every type of damage, and every level of severity. From a same-day chip repair on a laminate edge in Basingstoke to a full multi-day master craftsman timber restoration on a solid oak kitchen in the Surrey Hills, we bring trade-exclusive equipment, advanced materials, and genuine specialist knowledge directly to your kitchen.
We do not do baths. We do not do shower trays. We do not do furniture. We focus entirely on kitchen worktops — and that singular focus is what makes the quality of our work exceptional.
Based in Ash on the Surrey and Hampshire border, our fully equipped mobile unit serves the entire region, covering all major towns and surrounding villages across Surrey, Hampshire, and Berkshire. Our GU12 base puts us within easy reach of the entire county network — from Guildford and Woking in Surrey to Winchester and Southampton in Hampshire and Reading and Windsor in Berkshire.
Our Worktop Repair & Restoration Services
Wood Worktop Restoration — Master Craftsman Timber Repair
Solid timber worktops are our core specialism and the service that defines everything Repair and Restore stands for. True timber restoration is not cosmetic repair — it is master craftsman work. It requires a deep understanding of grain structure, wood chemistry, tannin reactions, and professional hardwax oil finishing systems that most tradespeople simply do not possess.
Over 20 years we have developed a timber restoration service that goes far beyond what any standard cosmetic repairer offers. We carry industrial Makita M-Class dust extraction systems, trade-exclusive Mirka sanding equipment, and premium Fiddes hardwax oil finishing systems to every job. The result is a worktop restored to a level genuinely indistinguishable from new — without the cost or disruption of replacement.
Our timber worktop services cover:
Full dustless sanding and hardwax oil restoration — stripping years of damage back to fresh, healthy timber and sealing with a durable 5-year protective finish.
Black water stain and tannin ring removal — neutralising the chemical reactions that turn oak jet black around sinks and wet areas.
Burn, scorch, and heat ring repair — surgically removing carbonised timber cells and gradient blending the repair invisibly into the surrounding grain.
Sticky and failed Danish oil stripping — mechanically scraping away uncured, gummy oil buildup before a full dustless re-sand and seal.
Chip, gouge, crack, and split joint repair — colour-matched two-part epoxy paste stabilisation and artistic grain-grouting.
Undermount sink rot and tap zone remediation — routing out rotten timber and piecing in fresh matching staves.
Precision sloped drainer groove machining — retrofitting gravity-fed drainage channels into flat timber worktops.
Commercial bar and restaurant restoration — overnight hardwax oil restoration with zero business downtime.
2-year preventative maintenance top-up — a low-friction key-sand and fresh oil reinforcement for a full 5-year finish lifecycle.

Corian & Solid Surface Repair — Specialist Restoration
Corian and solid surface worktops are our second core specialism. Repairing them correctly requires specialist knowledge of acrylic chemistry, progressive abrasive sequencing, and colour-matching systems that go far beyond standard cosmetic repair. Most general tradespeople will not touch Corian — we have spent years mastering it.
We carry dedicated solid surface repair and polishing systems to every job, allowing us to restore damaged Corian to a factory-smooth, seamless finish entirely on-site.
Our Corian and solid surface services cover:
Burn and scorch repair — removing heat-damaged acrylic and blending the repair seamlessly into the surrounding material.
Deep scratch and surface scratch removal — progressive abrasive resurfacing to eliminate surface tracking and restore a uniform sheen.
Crack repair — structural stabilisation of split or fractured solid surface sections.
Surface dulling and full restoration — returning dull, worn Corian to its original factory finish.
Corian polishing — specialist high-gloss or satin polishing for solid surface worktops and integrated sinks.

Laminate Worktop Repair
Laminate is the most common worktop material across Surrey, Hampshire, and Berkshire kitchens — and the most frequently damaged. A chipped edge, a burn from a pan, or water ingress swelling can make an otherwise perfectly functional kitchen look tired and neglected.
Our on-site laminate repair service uses advanced composite resins and hand-painted colour-matching and texture replication techniques to make damage completely disappear. Most laminate repairs are completed within a few hours in a single visit, with no mess, no demolition, and no replacement required.
Our laminate worktop services cover:
Chip and edge profile repair — rebuilding missing sections using structural resin and hand-painted grain or pattern matching.
Burn and scorch repair — removing heat damage and restoring the surface pattern seamlessly.
Deep scratch repair — filling and pattern-matching surface scratches to restore a uniform appearance.
Water damage and swelling — stabilising and restoring water-affected laminate sections.
Edge delamination — re-bonding and rebuilding lifted or separating laminate edges.

Stone, Quartz & Granite Worktop Repair
Natural stone, engineered quartz, and granite worktops are among the most premium surfaces found in regional kitchens — and among the most expensive to replace when damaged. We offer two specialist services for stone worktops addressing the two most common issues homeowners face.
Chip repair — using durable colour-matched resin systems we repair chips and edge damage on quartz, granite, and natural stone to a seamless factory-matched finish.
Hard water stain removal — Surrey and Hampshire's naturally hard water leaves stubborn limescale and mineral deposits on stone surfaces that standard cleaning products cannot shift. We use specialist non-abrasive removal techniques to safely eliminate hard water buildup and restore the original surface appearance without scratching or dulling the stone.

Who We Work With
Private Homeowners
Whether you have dropped a cast-iron pan on your oak worktop, noticed your Corian has developed a crack, or discovered black rot spreading around your undermount sink, we provide honest assessments and specialist repairs that save you from the cost and disruption of a full kitchen replacement.
Landlords & Letting Agents
Worktop damage between tenancies is one of the most common sources of deposit disputes and unnecessary refurbishment costs. Our rapid on-site repair service restores damaged surfaces cost-effectively before a new tenancy begins, protecting your property value and keeping your budget intact.
Kitchen Installers & Fitters
During a busy multi-trade kitchen installation, accidents are inevitable. A slipped drill bit or a dropped component can chip a brand-new laminate edge or crack a quartz slab right before final client handover. We offer a fast-response emergency call-out service for kitchen installers and joiners across the region, getting to your site quickly and making the damage disappear before your client's final inspection.
