Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Kidmore End
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kidmore End use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t 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.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Discolouration deep in quartz
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
