How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Never put hot pans down directly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, 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.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bolton Outlanes. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole worktop
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Repairing versus replacing in Bolton Outlanes
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.
