Worktop repair in Bolton, done in place
Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. We repair them all in your kitchen. We work on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most frequently call us about damage to a stone worktop and scratches and knife marks.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is 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.

Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Bolton
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Common questions in Bolton
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
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 repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
