Worktop repair across Salford: what to expect
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for chipped corners and cuts and scratches in the surface, on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate.
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Pricing in Salford
Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
How the damage happens
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips frequently start there.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A heat mark or burn
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Chips caused during installation
Landlords, agents and businesses in Salford
If you manage property in Salford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Salford and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
For a price in Salford, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

The whole UK, including all of Salford. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Usually. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
