FAQs for Achintee
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire worktop
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
