How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

About our worktop repair in Craigton

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are a heat mark or burn and cuts and scratches in the surface.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repairs by material

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repair or replace in Craigton?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
