For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Questions from Woodlane
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover the whole of Shropshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Woodlane included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What affects the price in Woodlane
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- 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
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Woodlane
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a chopping board
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Clean spills right away
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
