Trusted worktop repair in Pratling Street

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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

Common problems we fix in Pratling Street

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Knife marks
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips near the sink

Before booking anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Common questions in Pratling Street

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Do you come to Pratling Street?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Pratling Street from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Usually, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Pratling Street is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Repairs by material

Wood

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

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
