Worktop repair at your home in Laighstonehall

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are a dent from a dropped pan and scorch marks from pans.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Laighstonehall: your questions answered

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Normally. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for 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 to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

What affects the price in Laighstonehall

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There’s 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 price.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

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

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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