Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Your questions about worktop repair in Shortheath
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean spills straight away
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use a chopping board
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down 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’ll 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.

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
