DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Ashton-in-Makerfield?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Re-oil timber worktops
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
