Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Keep joints and edges dry
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Can I fix it myself?
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 usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Your questions about worktop repair in St Lawrence Bay
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
