About our worktop repair in Craigo

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. We always aim for a repair that blends in. If you’re dealing with knife marks and a dent from a dropped pan, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Craigo: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What affects the price in Craigo

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz

What we are called out for in Craigo

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again
