Thorpe Underwood: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
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.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Use a chopping board
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Never put hot pans down directly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Landlord and trade work in Thorpe Underwood
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we are called out for in Thorpe Underwood
Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Dents and gouges
- A chipped quartz edge
- Burns from hot pans
- A chipped edge
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
- If travel is included in the price
- Who will actually do the work
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
You don’t 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 will reply with a fixed quote.
