Worktop repair in Lyndon, Birmingham
Chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops in Lyndon, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Damage from fitting or building work
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

When to call us in Lyndon
Edges and corners chip most often, typically from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A heat mark or burn
- Gouges in the surface
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
Questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Lyndon: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries 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.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Lyndon is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work in Lyndon?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lyndon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole worktop
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Lyndon
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
