Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ragdale use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about worktop repair in Ragdale
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you work in Ragdale?
We do. We send a technician to Ragdale for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Are there extra charges for Ragdale?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.

What affects the price in Ragdale
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Wipe up spills quickly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Common problems we fix in Ragdale
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Burns from hot pans
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Damage to a stone worktop
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What preparation is included
