How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Your questions about worktop repair in Ashton upon Mersey
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Normally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Keep wood oiled
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
