Common questions in Ashford
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What affects the price in Ashford
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Clean spills immediately
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
