Worktop repair in Tonge without replacing anything
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on laminate, granite & marble and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges in the surface and a damaged sink edge.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What affects the price in Tonge
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
