Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Portincaple as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Argyll and Bute and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
