What affects the price in Boldon Colliery
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Boldon Colliery. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
We price from photos so you don’t 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.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Questions from Boldon Colliery
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you cover Boldon Colliery?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Boldon Colliery and the rest of Sunderland. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
