What we are called out for in Ley Green
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that is where cracks often begin.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Dents and gouges
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips caused during installation
- Damage to a stone worktop
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Landlord and trade work in Ley Green
Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What else we do in Ley Green
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
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 water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Ley Green questions
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover Ley Green?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Ley Green and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Are there extra charges for Ley Green?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
