How we handle worktop repair in Saltney
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and people most often call us about damage around the sink cut-out and damage from fitting or building work.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Saltney and across Flintshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in Saltney?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. 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.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Use a chopping board
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep joints and edges dry
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Failed support under the worktop
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Questions from Saltney
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Generally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Do you work in Saltney?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Saltney for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
