Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Shefford.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Shefford
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shefford use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
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.

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
