Every job is backed for twelve months in Earlswood and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Scorch marks from pans
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Damage from fitting or building work
- A dent from a dropped pan

Earlswood: your questions answered
Are there extra charges for Earlswood?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Earlswood
For anyone letting property in or around Earlswood, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
