Worktop repair in Plawsworth without replacing anything
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are a heat mark or burn and a damaged sink edge.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
FAQs for Plawsworth

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is repairing better than replacing?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Plawsworth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Plawsworth and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep wood oiled
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
