Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Re-oil timber worktops
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What your worktop is made of matters

Common questions in Flamstead
How much does worktop repair cost in Flamstead?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Generally. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you come to Flamstead?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Flamstead and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- A fixed quote before booking
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
