Worktop repair at your home in Audlem
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. If you are dealing with chips caused during installation and damage around the sink cut-out, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Re-oil timber worktops
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

How quickly can you book me in?

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price

Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
What affects the price in Audlem
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
