Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about worktop repair in Hornby
Which areas do you work in?
All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Repairing versus replacing in Hornby
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hornby use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
