How we handle worktop repair in Hyde
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Our repair technicians work on granite & marble, solid wood and quartz, and common reasons people contact us are chips in quartz or granite and a dent from a dropped pan.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Common questions in Hyde
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Hyde. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Common problems we fix in Hyde
Edges and corners chip most often, often when something heavy catches the edge.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A heat mark or burn
- Dents and gouges
- Knife marks
- A chipped quartz edge

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Most customers in Hyde get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use a chopping board
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
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.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
