How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Pilton, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Pilton questions

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
