How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for South Ruislip. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Use a chopping board
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
When to call us in South Ruislip
Edges and corners chip most frequently, normally from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
