Potten End: your questions answered

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

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 the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

Open a window if you can
Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Make sure the area is dry

What we are called out for in Potten End

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

Scratches and knife marks
Scorch marks from pans
Chips near the sink

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Don’t knock pans against the edge
Dry around the sink and joints
Do not cut directly on the worktop

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
