Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about worktop repair in South Brent
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Common problems we fix in South Brent
Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.
Look out for these signs:
- Scratches and knife marks
- A chipped quartz edge
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Scorch marks from pans
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
