Questions from Barnet

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you cover Barnet?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Barnet for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What affects the price in Barnet

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Barnet. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

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 is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barnet

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Barnet

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A chipped edge

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
