How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Damage to a stone worktop

  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common questions in Dengie

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Dengie and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

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.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. A photo lets us check.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Read our prices page.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Dengie

  • Quartz
  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

What affects the price in Dengie

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you’re in Dengie and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 usually the cheaper route.
