Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
What we are called out for in Kennington
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- A damaged sink edge
- Gouges in the surface
- A heat mark or burn
- A chipped edge
Comparing quotes
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long it needs to cure
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
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.

Repair or replace in Kennington?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
