Worktop repair in Sholver, done in place
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. If you’re dealing with knife marks and scorch marks from pans, we can normally put it right, on solid wood, granite & marble and laminate alike.
For a place like Sholver, a kitchen repair is usually a few hours.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Around Sholver, arranging several trades for a replacement can take a while. A repair needs just one visit.

FAQs for Sholver
Do you take on commercial work in Sholver?
Yes, commercial work is part of what we do. Send photos and details of the building.
Can you repair worktops in a rental near Greenfield station?
Of course: photos and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What a repair can’t fix

What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare. Around Sholver, access and parking are normally easy. Mention a lane, gate or long drive when you book.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep wood oiled
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
