Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 usually the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in St George's Fields

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to St George's Fields. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
