Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
When to call us in Altens
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scorch marks from pans
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- A dent from a dropped pan
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Use a chopping board
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A top that moves on its units

Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Same prices wherever you are

Landlords, agents and businesses in Altens
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 frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
