Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price

Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Common questions in North Seaton
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
In most cases. A picture lets us check.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you cover North Seaton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to North Seaton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
