Drumbrae questions
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are there extra charges for Drumbrae?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Places near Drumbrae
What else we do in Drumbrae
Landlord and trade work in Drumbrae
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Drumbrae use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean spills immediately
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Re-oil timber worktops
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
What affects the price in Drumbrae
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Drumbrae. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
