DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Worktop repair in Davidson's Mains, done in place
We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. We are often asked to fix cuts and scratches in the surface and chips near the sink, in solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and solid wood.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Davidson's Mains
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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean spills straight away
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
