How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Barnes Street. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we’re called out for in Barnes Street

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • Chipped corners
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • A damaged sink edge

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Failed support under the worktop

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barnes Street

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
