You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. If you’re dealing with scorch marks from pans and cuts and scratches in the surface, we can help.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Repairing versus replacing in Littlehampton

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Our hiring checklist

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back

Most clients in Littlehampton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Littlehampton

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Usually, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you work in Littlehampton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Littlehampton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Littlehampton
