Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our full price list.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Askam in Furness: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cumbria.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Askam in Furness?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LA16 postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Use a chopping board

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Do you need worktop repair in Askam in Furness?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A damaged sink edge
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
