About our worktop repair in Prescot

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include chips near the sink and a chipped edge, on granite & marble, quartz and solid wood.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

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

Wood

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Prescot

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Prescot use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Your questions about worktop repair in Prescot

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes, frequently. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you work in Prescot?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Prescot and the rest of St Helens. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

For a price in Prescot, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
