What else we do in Knowle
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Knowle, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How much do I need to move?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
When to call us in Knowle
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that is where cracks often begin.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Burns from hot pans
- Chips caused during installation
- Chipped corners
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Aftercare advice
- What prep work is covered
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a chopping board
- Clean spills immediately
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
