Fyfield: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- Damage from fitting or building work
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Dents and gouges
What to look for in a quote

What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz

Landlord and trade work in Fyfield
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fyfield use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
