How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Smalley. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Smalley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Do not let water sit on joints
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Do you need worktop repair in Smalley?
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: 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.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Knife marks
- Scorch marks from pans
- A chipped edge
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Repairing versus replacing in Smalley

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 normally the cheaper route.
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.
