Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole worktop
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Common questions in Shireshead
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How much does worktop repair cost in Shireshead?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?
All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Generally. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
Repairs by material

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
