Landlords, agents and businesses in Nursling
If you manage property in Nursling, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Common problems we fix in Nursling
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that is where cracks often begin.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- A chipped edge
- A chipped quartz edge
- Scorch marks from pans
Comparing quotes
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Should you replace it?
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
