How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of 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 are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Bedford

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are there extra charges for Bedford?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Bedford

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

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Bedford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repairing versus replacing in Bedford

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Use a chopping board
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
