The process

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

When to call us in Catfield

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chipped corners
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Knife marks

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why Catfield clients choose us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Take a look at our full price list.

What affects the price in Catfield

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Catfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common questions in Catfield

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Catfield included. Travel is included in the price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Norfolk.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs by material

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Catfield

  • Granite & marble
