Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
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. Repairing it early stops that.
Repairing versus replacing in Ayot St Peter
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Work done at your home or business
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Normally one visit, start to finish

Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.
Ayot St Peter questions
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you work in Ayot St Peter?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ayot St Peter and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
For a price in Ayot St Peter, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
