What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole worktop
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Use a chopping board
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
