Tokers Green questions
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you come to Tokers Green?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Tokers Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Normally. Send us a picture and we will tell you.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What else we do in Tokers Green
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use a chopping board
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Clean spills immediately
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Repair or replace in Tokers Green?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
