How we handle worktop repair in Shortwood
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We regularly repair solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people contact us are damage from fitting or building work and damage to a stone worktop.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire worktop
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price

Your questions about worktop repair in Shortwood
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Shortwood?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BS16 postcode.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What else we do in Shortwood
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
