Worktop repair in Great Doddington without replacing anything
Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped quartz edge and knife marks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep wood oiled
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Do not let water sit on joints
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Around Great Doddington
Around Great Doddington, we work in homes near Wrenn School, Great Doddington Primary and Stag's Head Public House and the streets around them. Great Doddington’s nearest station is Wellingborough station, roughly 2.5 miles north-east. Further afield, we also cover the area around Swansgate Shopping Centre (2 miles north) and Beacon Hill Castle (2 miles south-east).

For landlords and businesses
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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When to call us in Great Doddington
Most worktop damage takes a second: 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.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gouges in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Knife marks
- Scorch marks from pans
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- If travel is included in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Water-swollen laminate
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
What affects the price in Great Doddington
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
