DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common questions in Shenley
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Are there extra charges for Shenley?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WD7 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shenley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A fixed quote before booking

Do you need worktop repair in Shenley?
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A damaged sink edge
- A heat mark or burn
- Scratches and knife marks
- Gouges in the surface
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- How the colour is matched
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Clean spills right away
- Keep wood oiled
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
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.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
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 quote, not a guess.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Shenley
If you manage property in Shenley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
