Questions from Lightwood
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Stoke-on-Trent.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Lightwood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Repairing versus replacing in Lightwood
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- 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.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Use a chopping board
- Keep wood oiled
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Lightwood, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you do not 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, and you will get a fixed figure back.
