Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Questions from Whaddon
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Generally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Whaddon. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Whaddon, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
- Severe heat marks in quartz
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Whaddon
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
