How we handle worktop repair in Caton
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We work on solid wood, quartz and laminate, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new kitchen and gouges in the surface.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
What we’re called out for in Caton
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that is where cracks frequently begin.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chipped corners
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- A heat mark or burn
- Damage to a stone worktop
Questions to ask before you book

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Landlord and trade work in Caton
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace in Caton?
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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Caton
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job.
