Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Landlords, agents and businesses in Crompton

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Common questions in Crompton

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Oldham.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you need worktop repair in Crompton?

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips often start there.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Damage from fitting or building work
