FAQs for Oadby
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Signs you need worktop repair in Oadby
Edges and corners chip most often, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips near the sink

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Water-swollen laminate
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
