Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Should you replace it?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before you book

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Common questions in Egremont

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover Egremont?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Egremont for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What affects the price in Egremont

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Egremont. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
