Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Childwick Green questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Childwick Green?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your AL3 postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A top that moves on its units
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Repair or replace in Childwick Green?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Childwick Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works

- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
