About our worktop repair in Old Swan
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Whether it’s chips near the sink and dents and gouges, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Do you need worktop repair in Old Swan?
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.
Keep an eye out for these signs:

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Repairing versus replacing in Old Swan
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Old Swan
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Do you work in Old Swan?
We do. Technicians travel to Old Swan from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your L13 postcode.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
