- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Backnoe End

Backnoe End: your questions answered
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Repairs by material
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Water-swollen laminate
- Discolouration deep in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
