How we handle worktop repair in Reydon
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We’re often asked to fix burns from hot pans and damage around the sink cut-out, in solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Your questions about worktop repair in Reydon
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Keep wood oiled
- Dry around the sink and joints
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
