Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Re-oil timber worktops
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Questions from Balmacara
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
Are there extra charges for Balmacara?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Should you replace it?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Balmacara
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Highland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A top that moves on its units
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Balmacara
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
