Worktop repair in Balbeggie without replacing anything

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. We work on quartz, granite & marble and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are knife marks and gouges in the surface.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Wood

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Can I get a quote without a visit?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Usually. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PH2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

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, because water gets in and swells the board.
