Gooderstone: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
About our worktop repair in Gooderstone
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for chips near the sink and cuts and scratches in the surface, on laminate, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What else we do in Gooderstone
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Gooderstone, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Gooderstone
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- One price list for the whole UK
- No need to remove anything

Common problems we fix in Gooderstone
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Gouges in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Scratches and knife marks
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- How to care for the finish
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep wood oiled
- Wipe up spills quickly
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid wood
