All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Mayland and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Mayland
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Mayland?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CM3 postcode.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Normally. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you cover the entire of Essex?
Everywhere in the UK, Mayland included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Mayland. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we are called out for in Mayland
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A chipped quartz edge
- Gouges in the surface
- Knife marks
- Burns from hot pans

Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
