Worktop repair in Great Braxted without replacing anything
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for burns from hot pans and chips near the sink, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

FAQs for Great Braxted
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you come to Great Braxted?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Great Braxted. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I book?

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
