For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Minsmere questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Minsmere?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Usually. A picture lets us check.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. 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.

What we’re called out for in Minsmere
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A damaged sink edge
- Dents and gouges
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips on edges and corners
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How your room will be protected
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Minsmere. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
