The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Littleborough questions

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Littleborough?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Littleborough. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
