Worktop repair in Wissett without replacing anything
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. If you are dealing with a chipped edge and scratches and knife marks, we can help, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
If you are in Wissett and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP19 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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 won’t last.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wissett as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Wissett: your questions answered
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Suffolk.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
