Should you replace it?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?

- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Farther Howegreen: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Farther Howegreen. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Farther Howegreen for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Farther Howegreen?

Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.

How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
