How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Never put hot pans down directly
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Cherry Hinton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood

What your worktop is made of matters
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.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Cherry Hinton questions
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover Cherry Hinton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Cherry Hinton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
