What else we do in High Ongar
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in High Ongar
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips frequently start there.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Chipped corners
- A damaged sink edge
- Cuts and scratches in the surface

- What preparation is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, 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.
High Ongar: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Typically. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you work in High Ongar?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to High Ongar. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
