Common questions in Great Dunmow
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, 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
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
