Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Halfway Street, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Halfway Street questions

Do you work in Halfway Street?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Halfway Street and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Generally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.
