Should you replace it?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shiremoor. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

How we handle worktop repair in Shiremoor

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. If you are dealing with burns from hot pans and damage from fitting or building work, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Clean spills immediately

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

Common problems we fix in Shiremoor

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that is where cracks frequently begin.

Look out for these signs:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Dents and gouges
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish

FAQs for Shiremoor

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
