What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

Ardrishaig questions

Do you come to Ardrishaig?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Ardrishaig from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your PA30 postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
