DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
How we handle worktop repair in Cheadle
Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. If you are dealing with a damaged sink edge and a chipped edge, we can typically put it right, on laminate, solid wood and quartz alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

FAQs for Cheadle
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do you work in Cheadle?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Cheadle and the rest of Stockport. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
How much does worktop repair cost in Cheadle?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Repair or replace in Cheadle?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use a chopping board
- Keep wood oiled
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
