What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Seaham questions
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Generally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Are there extra charges for Seaham?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Seaham. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
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 tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Landlord and trade work in Seaham
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Seaham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Wipe up spills quickly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
