Why repair rather than replace?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
See our prices page.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
St Leonards: your questions answered
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes St Leonards. Prices don’t change with location.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.
Do you work in St Leonards?
We do. Repair technicians travel to St Leonards from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Signs you need worktop repair in St Leonards
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

What affects the price in St Leonards
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
