Worktop repair in Plot Gate, done in place
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our repair technicians work on laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about scorch marks from pans and damage from fitting or building work.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we’re called out for in Plot Gate

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Dents and gouges
- Knife marks
- Burns from hot pans
- Chips on edges and corners

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TA11 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Questions from Plot Gate
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Are there extra charges for Plot Gate?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Plot Gate, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plot Gate use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
