Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
When to call us in East Town
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips on edges and corners
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep wood oiled
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

FAQs for East Town
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
How much do I need to move?
Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
