What affects the price in Birch Heath
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Birch Heath. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry
