The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean spills straight away
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Repair or replace in Elmstone?

Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Elmstone
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Can I fix it myself?
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
What affects the price in Elmstone
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Elmstone. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
