Worktop repair in Urpeth, done in place
We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, matching the colour and pattern by hand. Nothing is taken out. Our technicians work on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are a heat mark or burn and a dent from a dropped pan.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep wood oiled
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep joints and edges dry
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. 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. An early repair prevents it.
Common questions in Urpeth
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A photo lets us check.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Urpeth
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Urpeth. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
