Landlords, agents and businesses in Paignton
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Worktop repair at your home in Paignton
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Typical jobs include chips on edges and corners and cuts and scratches in the surface, in solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Paignton. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we’re called out for in Paignton
Edges and corners chip most frequently, typically from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips caused during installation
- A dent from a dropped pan
- A chipped quartz edge
- Burns from hot pans
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Why repair rather than replace?
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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One price list for the whole UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
