What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Diggle. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire worktop
Most customers in Diggle get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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.
Your questions about worktop repair in Diggle
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Generally. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover the entire of Oldham?
Across the UK, so Diggle is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What else we do in Diggle
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Diggle
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
