How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
FAQs for Shotteswell
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Are there extra charges for Shotteswell?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
