Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Staple Fitzpaine

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What affects the price in Staple Fitzpaine

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole worktop

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in Staple Fitzpaine

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Generally. Send us a photo and we will tell you.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

When to call us in Staple Fitzpaine

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips in quartz or granite

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel
