Why repair rather than replace?
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. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Childwall questions
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover the whole of Liverpool?
We work UK-wide, so Childwall is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When to call us in Childwall
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A chipped edge
- Knife marks
- A damaged sink edge
- A dent from a dropped pan

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Liverpool and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Childwall. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
