Worktop repair at your home in Hendra

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Common call-outs are for scorch marks from pans and damage to a stone worktop, across granite & marble, solid wood and laminate.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hendra

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Repair or replace in Hendra?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hendra, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

What affects the price in Hendra

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hendra. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Hendra questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Are there extra charges for Hendra?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
