What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ashton-on-Ribble. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ashton-on-Ribble, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
