For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pokesdown use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Worktop repair in Pokesdown without replacing anything
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Our technicians work on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and people most often call us about chipped corners and dents and gouges.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

FAQs for Pokesdown
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Normally. A picture lets us check.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep a trivet by the hob

- Oil wooden tops regularly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
