What affects the price in Ashkirk
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Ashkirk get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble

Ashkirk: your questions answered
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
