Red Hill: your questions answered
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we will tell you.

What else we do in Red Hill
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Never put hot pans down directly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repair or replace in Red Hill?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Red Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
