Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Never put hot pans down directly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Questions from Southwell
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
How much does worktop repair cost in Southwell?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Common problems we fix in Southwell
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chipped quartz edge
- Scratches and knife marks
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Chips near the sink

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DT5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What affects the price in Southwell
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Southwell and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 generally cheaper.
