Worktop repair at your home in Burnham Overy Staithe
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We are often asked to fix chips caused during installation and a dent from a dropped pan, across quartz, laminate and solid wood.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlord and trade work in Burnham Overy Staithe
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
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?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Burnham Overy Staithe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Burnham Overy Staithe
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
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.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Clean spills immediately
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Signs you need worktop repair in Burnham Overy Staithe

- Damage to a stone worktop
- A dent from a dropped pan

Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Burnham Overy Staithe questions
Can pets and children be at home?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
