Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chips on edges and corners and burns from hot pans.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Cheetham Hill

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Cheetham Hill. The price comes down to:

What kind of damage it is
How many areas need work
Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

The postcode, so we can plan the visit
What it’s made of, if you know
A picture taken from further back
Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Cheetham Hill questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you work in Cheetham Hill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Cheetham Hill and the rest of Greater Manchester. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A photo lets us check.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

Watch the edges with heavy pans
Do not cut directly on the worktop
Keep joints and edges dry
Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

We protect the rest of the kitchen.
We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
We fill it and level it with the worktop.
We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
