Shiskine: your questions answered
Are there extra charges for Shiskine?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use a chopping board
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Why repair rather than replace?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
