Questions from Blackfen
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Blackfen included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you come to Blackfen?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Blackfen and the rest of Greater London. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Blackfen, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blackfen use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Re-oil timber worktops
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
