A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new kitchen and burns from hot pans, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Daldowie

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Do you come to Daldowie?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Daldowie for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Repairing versus replacing in Daldowie

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Daldowie

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

Materials we work on in Daldowie

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

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
