How we handle worktop repair in Boars Hill
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for a heat mark or burn and a dent from a dropped pan, in solid wood, laminate and quartz.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Keep wood oiled
- Clean spills straight away
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Your questions about worktop repair in Boars Hill
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Boars Hill, 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.
