What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Shotley Bridge. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Your questions about worktop repair in Shotley Bridge
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Shotley Bridge?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your DH8 postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

- Free fixed quotes from pictures
