Worktop repair for Calderwood homes

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Calderwood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When to call us in Calderwood

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A chipped edge
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Scorch marks from pans

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

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 fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
