Your questions about worktop repair in Foveran

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Aberdeenshire.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Can you match granite flecks?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Foveran. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • 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 give you a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we’re called out for in Foveran

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • Dents and gouges
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to care for the finish
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
