Worktop Repair across the Orkney Islands

Worktop repair at your home in the Orkney Islands

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We regularly repair laminate, granite & marble and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are scorch marks from pans and damage to a stone worktop.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

What you’ll pay

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for the Orkney Islands. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Landmarks near Kirkwall

In Kirkwall, that means homes near Orkney Library and Archive, Kirkwall Grammar School and Paterson Church. Further afield, we also cover the area around Balfour Hospital (0.5 miles south-west) and Bishop's Palace (within half a mile south-west). Green spaces nearby include Gallow Ha' and Loomi Shun.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place.

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in the Orkney Islands use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
