Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cox Green
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
If you manage property in Cox Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- A top that moves on its units
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Cox Green: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you cover the whole of Sunderland?
Everywhere in the UK, Cox Green included. Travel is included in the price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Typically. A picture lets us check.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Do not let water sit on joints
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. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
