Our worktop repair service in Aberdeenshire

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. Common call-outs are for damage around the sink cut-out and scratches and knife marks, on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Cost

Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Aberdeenshire

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Signs you need worktop repair

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Knife marks
  • Burns from hot pans

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Repair or replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours.
