FAQs for Ham
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Do you cover the whole of Plymouth?
All of Plymouth, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Ham.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Ham
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Ham
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
When to call us in Ham
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chipped corners
- A dent from a dropped pan
- A heat mark or burn
- Scratches and knife marks
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if they find more damage
