Worktop repair in Charlestown of Aberlour, done in place

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We work on quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are gouges in the surface and scorch marks from pans.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What affects the price in Charlestown of Aberlour

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

We do not add 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.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

  • Granite & marble

Charlestown of Aberlour questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Charlestown of Aberlour is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Repairs by material

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
