How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your B4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Gosta Green

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Our hiring checklist

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

DIY kit or professional 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 normally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
