- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Here we cover the CM16 postcode area. We regularly work on streets such as High Street, Station Road and Twankhams Alley. Epping sits on or near the B181 and B182, so getting to you is simple. Nearby, we also work in Ivy Chimneys (1 mile south-west), Steward's Green (1 mile south-east), Fiddlers Hamlet (1 mile south-east), Theydon Garnon (2 miles south) and Hobbs Cross (2 miles south-east).

What’s near Epping
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to The Black Lion pub, Epping Primary School and Church of St John the Baptist and the streets around them. Nearby too are Thornwood Common Flood Meadow (1.6 miles north-east) and St John's Church of England Voluntary Controlled School (less than half a mile west). A little further out are Epping Signalling Museum (under half a mile south) and St. Margaret's Hospital (0.7 miles north-east). Not far away are Gernon Bushes.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us photos 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
