For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common questions in Denby Common
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Water-swollen laminate
