Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
What affects the price in Hornchurch Marshes
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairs by material
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Re-oil timber worktops
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
