Common questions in Stoke Lane
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Use a chopping board
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Water-swollen laminate
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
