Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including New England. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole worktop
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

FAQs for New England
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, New England included. Travel is included in the price.
For landlords and businesses
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New England as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep wood oiled
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
