Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Worktop repair in Oakley, done in place
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. If you are dealing with damage around the sink cut-out and chips caused during installation, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

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.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your GL52 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean spills right away
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

What else we do in Oakley
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
