We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Waingroves: your questions answered

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Waingroves. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

Doing more than one item at once
What kind of damage it is
How many areas need work
How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

A close-up of the damage, in focus
The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

Clean spills immediately
Oil wooden tops regularly
Dry around the sink and joints
Keep a trivet by the hob

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Waingroves

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
