About our worktop repair in Ashton

We repair worktops in place, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. If you’re dealing with burns from hot pans and chips caused during installation, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Repairing versus replacing in Ashton

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Choosing a repair company

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. 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.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble

Questions from Ashton

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
