Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
About our worktop repair in Barnes Cray
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We are often asked to fix a chipped edge and damage to a stone worktop, across laminate, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Clean spills immediately
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Common questions in Barnes Cray
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Barnes Cray
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
