Landlord and trade work in Ballater
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
About our worktop repair in Ballater
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. Our repair technicians work on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about a chipped edge and scorch marks from pans.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A top that moves on its units
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Ballater: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Ballater is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How much does worktop repair cost in Ballater?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
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.
