About our worktop repair in St Ive
Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. Our repair technicians work on laminate, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about a chipped edge and damage from fitting or building work.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- 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
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including St Ive. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Common questions in St Ive
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Generally. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you work in St Ive?
We do. Repair technicians travel to St Ive from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Repairing versus replacing in St Ive
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
