How we handle worktop repair in East Allington
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new kitchen and burns from hot pans.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 generally the cheaper route.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in East Allington, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Granite & marble

Common questions in East Allington
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How much does worktop repair cost in East Allington?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TQ9 postcode.
Do you come to East Allington?
We do. We send a technician to East Allington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
