Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Worktop repair at your home in Achiltibuie

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. We regularly repair granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and people most frequently call us about a heat mark or burn and chips near the sink.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Achiltibuie, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

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

Questions from Achiltibuie

Are there extra charges for Achiltibuie?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Achiltibuie?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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.

What we’re called out for in Achiltibuie

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Gouges in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
