Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gamston. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Landlord and trade work in Gamston
For anyone letting property in or around Gamston, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

When to call us in Gamston
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chipped corners
- Chips caused during installation
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Chips near the sink

FAQs for Gamston
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Gamston, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath

What we work on
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
