Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Howe Green questions
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
How much does worktop repair cost in Howe Green?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Howe Green and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Howe Green.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Signs you need worktop repair in Howe Green
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Burns from hot pans
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Damage from fitting or building work
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
- What aftercare is recommended
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What affects the price in Howe Green
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Howe Green and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Howe Green
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
