Worktop repair at your home in Glencraig
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new kitchen and damage to a stone worktop, in solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.

Glencraig questions
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Glencraig.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What else we do in Glencraig
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Get a quote
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Glencraig as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
