For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Should you replace it?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Hoghton Bottoms
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Clean spills immediately
- Re-oil timber worktops
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
