What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Should you replace it?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlords, agents and businesses in East Markham
For anyone letting property in or around East Markham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
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.
What affects the price in East Markham
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice
What else we do in East Markham
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Clean spills right away
- Keep wood oiled
- Dry around the sink and joints
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Questions from East Markham
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Nottinghamshire.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
