Fishponds: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. A picture lets us check.
How much does worktop repair cost in Fishponds?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean spills immediately
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Keep joints and edges dry
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
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 generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 Fishponds
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fishponds as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Fishponds
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
