About our worktop repair in Fortrose
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on solid wood, quartz and laminate, and people most often call us about a heat mark or burn and gouges in the surface.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep wood oiled
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
