Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Leeholme. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Worktop repair at your home in Leeholme
Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. We’re often asked to fix gouges in the surface and a heat mark or burn, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and laminate.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Questions from Leeholme
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Leeholme?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Leeholme and the rest of County Durham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Landlord and trade work in Leeholme
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
For anyone letting property in or around Leeholme, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?

- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
