Worktop repair at your home in Upper Saltonstall

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We regularly repair granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most frequently call us about gouges in the surface and snagging damage in a new kitchen.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Upper Saltonstall questions

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you match granite flecks?

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

Do you work in Upper Saltonstall?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upper Saltonstall for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you cover the whole of Calderdale?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before booking
