FAQs for Great Shelford
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Advice
Do you need worktop repair in Great Shelford?
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chipped corners
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Scorch marks from pans
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
