Should you replace it?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
Moss Side questions
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
