Worktop repair at your home in St Loye's
We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz, and people most often call us about dents and gouges and scorch marks from pans.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Loye's
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Loye's as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Common questions in St Loye's
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Common problems we fix in St Loye's
The worst damage frequently 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.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Chips caused during installation
- Chips on edges and corners
- Scorch marks from pans
- Knife marks

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What else we do in St Loye's
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Wipe up spills quickly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
