What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Great Burdon: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Great Burdon included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Great Burdon. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. 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.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Great Burdon, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Great Burdon
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Use a chopping board
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Do you need worktop repair in Great Burdon?
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.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Burns from hot pans
- Scratches and knife marks
- Chips near the sink
- Chips in quartz or granite
Questions to ask before you book
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A top that moves on its units
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Laminate
