Our repair technicians come to Carbost for chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95

- A chipped quartz edge
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
Worktop repair at your home in Carbost
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for a dent from a dropped pan and knife marks, on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repair or replace: which is better?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

FAQs for Carbost
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we will tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Carbost?
We do. Technicians travel to Carbost from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Landlord and trade work in Carbost
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.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IV47 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- 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
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Laminate
Common problems we fix in Carbost
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A chipped edge
- A heat mark or burn
- Knife marks
- Damage around the sink cut-out
Before booking anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- Aftercare advice
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
