Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Podsmead
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.
How much does worktop repair cost in Podsmead?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
