Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Use a chopping board
- Keep joints and edges dry
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Questions from Clapton
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Clapton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover Clapton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Clapton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
