DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What else we do in Shipton-on-Cherwell
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Failed support under the worktop
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Do you need worktop repair in Shipton-on-Cherwell?
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Knife marks
- Chips near the sink
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Chips in quartz or granite
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How changes to the job are handled
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shipton-on-Cherwell as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
