Worktop repair at your home in Adswood
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We are frequently asked to fix damage to a stone worktop and scorch marks from pans, across laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common questions in Adswood
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Adswood and the rest of Stockport. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Adswood use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Adswood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Most clients in Adswood get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Repairing versus replacing in Adswood
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
