Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When to call us in Longwood

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips on edges and corners

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Longwood

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Longwood as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What affects the price in Longwood

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Longwood questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

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