How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Do not let water sit on joints
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

FAQs for Gurney Slade
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Gurney Slade.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Gurney Slade
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
Why repair rather than replace?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
