Should you replace it?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, 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 leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Where we work around Chinatown
Chinatown is about 1 mile east of City of Westminster, in Greater London. We visit customers in Chinatown and the surrounding area, so there is no workshop to go to. We work in 764 places in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.
Our technicians cover all of the W1F, W1D and W1T postcode area. Whether you live on Duck Lane, Drury Lane and Bruton Lane or a nearby road, a technician can come to you. With the A4 and A301 close by, Chinatown is easy for our repair technicians to reach.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in Chinatown and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairs by material
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep wood oiled
- Clean spills right away
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
