Repair or replace: which is better?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Worktop repair in Grains Bar, done in place
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Common call-outs are for a dent from a dropped pan and burns from hot pans, on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Keep wood oiled
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
What we’re called out for in Grains Bar
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Chips near the sink
- Chipped corners
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Burns from hot pans

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Grains Bar. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. 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 quote.
Your questions about worktop repair in Grains Bar
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Advice
Also in Grains Bar
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
