What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Ley Hill

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

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Ley Hill questions

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How much does worktop repair cost in Ley Hill?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Ley Hill included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ley Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

When to call us in Ley Hill

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Chipped corners
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Knife marks

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Ley Hill

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HP5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
