How we handle worktop repair in Newgate Street
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We work on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about chips on edges and corners and cuts and scratches in the surface.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Newgate Street and across Hertfordshire.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Clean spills right away
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Newgate Street questions
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
