Worktop repair across St Helens: what to expect

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair solid wood, quartz and granite & marble, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped edge and knife marks.

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Pricing in St Helens

Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

What we are called out for in St Helens

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A chipped edge
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Scorch marks from pans

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

St Helens questions

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you cover the whole of St Helens?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
