Questions from Great Welnetham
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Great Welnetham?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your IP30 postcode.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Great Welnetham. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep wood oiled
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
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 typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
