Common questions in Shaw
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover the entire of Oldham?
The whole UK, including all of Oldham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Shaw. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Shaw, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Work for landlords and builders
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.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
