Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Clean spills right away
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Old Hawkinge?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start 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.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Typically one visit, start to finish
