Your questions about worktop repair in Tyldesley

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Worktop repair at your home in Tyldesley

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new kitchen and cuts and scratches in the surface, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Signs you need worktop repair in Tyldesley

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage to a stone worktop

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Tyldesley

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tyldesley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your M29 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
