Trusted worktop repair in Ardlui

Repair or replace in Ardlui?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

About our worktop repair in Ardlui

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We work on quartz, laminate and granite & marble, and common reasons people contact us are burns from hot pans and chips caused during installation.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

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

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare
