Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Why repair rather than replace?
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 typically far better value. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lambley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Lambley
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you come to Lambley?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lambley. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?
All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Wipe up spills quickly
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting 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 over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When to call us in Lambley
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Burns from hot pans
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips caused during installation
