When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A top that moves on its units
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in South Shields
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use a chopping board
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Landlords, agents and businesses in South Shields
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- 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.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
