Worktop repair in Homer, Shropshire
Chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops in Homer, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Scorch marks from pans
- Chips caused during installation
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Questions from Homer
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Shropshire.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A top that moves on its units
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
