About our worktop repair in Little Eaton
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on laminate, granite & marble and quartz, and the jobs we see most are scratches and knife marks and dents and gouges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
FAQs for Little Eaton
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Derby.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Little Eaton included. Travel is included in the price.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
