What affects the price in Batford
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you’re in Batford and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, 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.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
