Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos 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 you will get a fixed figure back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How to compare quotes

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common questions in Brightwell-cum-Sotwell

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Brightwell-cum-Sotwell is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
