What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Worktop repair in Tiln, done in place

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include burns from hot pans and chips on edges and corners, across solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Tiln questions

Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Clean spills right away
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Repair or replace in Tiln?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
