Questions from Moston
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Greater Manchester, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you come to Moston?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Moston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Wipe up spills quickly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
