Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Clean spills right away
- Keep wood oiled
Use chopping boards and trivets, 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitegate
If you manage property in Whitegate, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Whitegate. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Whitegate. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Normally one visit, start to finish

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Repairs by material

FAQs for Whitegate
Can tenants book a repair?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
