How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Repairing versus replacing in Kirkby Thore
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. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before you book
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No extra charge for your area
- One visit for most repairs

Common problems we fix in Kirkby Thore
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chipped corners
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Chips near the sink
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
Comparing quotes
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
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, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Water-swollen laminate
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
