How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Withington: your questions answered
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
How much does worktop repair cost in Withington?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are there extra charges for Withington?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Repair or replace in Withington?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What else we do in Withington
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
