When to call us in High Lane
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Dents and gouges
- Chips on edges and corners
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Chips near the sink
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the room is protected while they work
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid wood
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
FAQs for High Lane
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Generally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What affects the price in High Lane
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Use a chopping board
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Repair or replace in High Lane?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
