What affects the price in Baldersby St James
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

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 can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
