How we handle worktop repair in Chorlton-by-Backford
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Whether it’s cuts and scratches in the surface and damage to a stone worktop, we can help, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and laminate alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Chorlton-by-Backford questions
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
There’s 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chorlton-by-Backford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
