How we handle worktop repair in Ticknall
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people get in touch are damage from fitting or building work and gouges in the surface.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Ticknall. The price comes down to:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Use a chopping board
- Keep wood oiled
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Ticknall questions
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A picture lets us check.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
