About our worktop repair in Cowgate
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. We regularly repair laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are chips in quartz or granite and chips on edges and corners.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What else we do in Cowgate
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Should you replace it?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Fixed prices from your photos
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
