How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use a chopping board

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Worktop repair in Kippax without replacing anything

You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are knife marks and damage around the sink cut-out.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

We work across the LS25 postcode area and the streets around it. We regularly work on streets such as High Street, The Square and Station Road and the roads around them.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood
  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz

Should you replace it?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our pricing.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting 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 will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Kippax

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Typically. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back

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.
