DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Worktop repair in Tongland, done in place
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include a chipped edge and dents and gouges, across laminate, solid wood and quartz.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Tongland: your questions answered
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Do you come to Tongland?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Tongland for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
What we’re called out for in Tongland
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- A damaged sink edge
- Dents and gouges
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tongland use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Repair or replace in Tongland?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
