When to call us in Efford
The worst damage frequently 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.

- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Burns from hot pans
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips caused during installation
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
Repair or replace in Efford?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One visit for most repairs

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Do not let water sit on joints
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
