What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Use a chopping board
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Severe heat marks in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Burgh St Margaret: your questions answered
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Landlord and trade work in Burgh St Margaret
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
