DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What affects the price in South Stoke

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for South Stoke. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in South Stoke

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