Worktop repair in Scholes without replacing anything
Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble, and common reasons people get in touch are dents and gouges and damage to a stone worktop.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Landlord and trade work in Scholes
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scholes as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your S61 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
FAQs for Scholes
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Are there extra charges for Scholes?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a chopping board
- Clean spills immediately
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Never put hot pans down directly
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
