FAQs for Earnley
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover Earnley?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Earnley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Generally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
How we handle worktop repair in Earnley
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We are frequently asked to fix burns from hot pans and knife marks, across laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Earnley
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Most customers in Earnley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use a chopping board
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep wood oiled
- Keep joints and edges dry
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Repair or replace in Earnley?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Repairs by material
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
