What affects the price in South Burlingham

- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive

Common problems we fix in South Burlingham
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A heat mark or burn
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Dents and gouges
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- How to look after the finish
- How the colour is matched
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
