Worktop repair in Short Street, done in place

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new kitchen and chips in quartz or granite.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Short Street: your questions answered

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you cover the entire of Wiltshire?

Across the UK, and that includes Short Street. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you work in Short Street?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Short Street and the rest of Wiltshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Signs you need worktop repair in Short Street

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A heat mark or burn
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Knife marks
  • A chipped edge

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Short Street

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Repair or replace in Short Street?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Short Street customers choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Get a quote

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
