Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Repair or replace in Hemswell?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
FAQs for Hemswell
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
