Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
About our worktop repair in Birgham
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage in a new kitchen and a heat mark or burn.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Birgham: your questions answered
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Generally. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
If you are in Birgham and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
If you manage property in Birgham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Do you need worktop repair in Birgham?
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chipped corners
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Scorch marks from pans
- A dent from a dropped pan

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
