Common questions in Burnham Market

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Burnham Market?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

10 questions to ask before booking

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repairing versus replacing in Burnham Market

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Burnham Market. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burnham Market

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Water-swollen laminate

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
