How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wainscott use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Medway and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wainscott. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Wainscott
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Wainscott get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Wainscott questions
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
