What affects the price in Shallcross
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Shallcross. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit

Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Shallcross: your questions answered
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Shallcross. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Repairing versus replacing in Shallcross
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Other services in Shallcross
Common problems we fix in Shallcross
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Damage from fitting or building work
- A chipped edge
- Damage to a stone worktop
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Shallcross
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
For anyone letting property in or around Shallcross, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Dry around the sink and joints
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
