Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported

What affects the price in Pingewood
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Pingewood. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

For anyone letting property in or around Pingewood, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Pingewood, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep wood oiled
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Clean spills right away
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
