What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlord and trade work in Cuckoo's Nest
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What affects the price in Cuckoo's Nest
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cuckoo's Nest. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We do not add 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.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Failed support under the worktop
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Common questions in Cuckoo's Nest
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work in Cuckoo's Nest?
We do. We send a technician to Cuckoo's Nest for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
