How we handle worktop repair in St Helens
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. If you are dealing with chips in quartz or granite and chips on edges and corners, we can typically put it right, on laminate, quartz and granite & marble alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to St Helens. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Wipe up spills quickly
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, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
