What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Common Side
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
