About our worktop repair in Ribchester

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We work on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are burns from hot pans and a damaged sink edge.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PR3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Ribchester questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you come to Ribchester?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ribchester. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Ribchester?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

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

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
