Worktop repair in Langho, done in place
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches and knife marks and a heat mark or burn.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Langho. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep wood oiled
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Langho questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lancashire.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
