What else we do in The Quays
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Use a chopping board
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep wood oiled
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

FAQs for The Quays
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
