Common questions in Lake
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. A picture lets us check.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How much do I need to move?
Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Worktop repair at your home in Lake
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Whether it’s chips on edges and corners and snagging damage in a new kitchen, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Repair or replace in Lake?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep joints and edges dry
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
What affects the price in Lake
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole worktop
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Lake, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
