Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ockbrook
Letting agents frequently 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.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Signs you need worktop repair in Ockbrook
Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Dents and gouges
- A heat mark or burn
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Damage from fitting or building work
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean spills right away
- Use a chopping board
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Repairing versus replacing in Ockbrook
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Questions from Ockbrook
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are there extra charges for Ockbrook?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ockbrook.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
