Worktop repair at your home in Craigleith
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: 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. We work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and the jobs we see most are a heat mark or burn and dents and gouges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

When to call us in Craigleith
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Craigleith. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Craigleith: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you come to Craigleith?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Craigleith for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Craigleith. Prices do not change with location.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A top that moves on its units
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on

How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price

Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Keep wood oiled
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Do not let water sit on joints
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
