Elm: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A photo lets us check.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Worktop repair at your home in Elm
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for a dent from a dropped pan and cuts and scratches in the surface, on granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

- Water-swollen laminate
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PE14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When to call us in Elm
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A damaged sink edge
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Knife marks
- A chipped quartz edge

Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
