How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  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. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Advice

About our worktop repair in Salford

Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, with colour and pattern matched by hand. Nothing is taken out. We work on solid wood, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are burns from hot pans and gouges in the surface.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Salford

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

What affects the price in Salford

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Salford. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use a chopping board

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Salford

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Your questions about worktop repair in Salford

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you repair quartz?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
