Should you replace it?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Barrhead
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
