Honest limits

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

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Use a chopping board
  • 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.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Salterforth questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

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

Do you come to Salterforth?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Salterforth for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Salterforth. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

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.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Salterforth

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Salterforth use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When to call us in Salterforth

Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Knife marks
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
