What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Landlords, agents and businesses in Roughbirchworth

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
