FAQs for Higher Dinting
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Higher Dinting, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A top that moves on its units
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
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.
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Higher Dinting. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
