Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Most clients in Larkfield get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Larkfield
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

FAQs for Larkfield

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
