What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry

About our worktop repair in Team Colliery
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Common call-outs are for chips caused during installation and burns from hot pans, across solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and solid wood.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Team Colliery
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Clean spills immediately
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
