Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Advice
FAQs for Church Whitfield
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Church Whitfield use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep wood oiled
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
