Repair or replace in Shipmeadow?

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Questions from Shipmeadow
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Suffolk.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, 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 price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
