Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Water-swollen laminate
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble

Alder Hills questions
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are there extra charges for Alder Hills?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairing versus replacing in Alder Hills
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Same prices wherever you are
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
See our prices page.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
