Worktop repair in Gorgie, done in place
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We’re often asked to fix chips caused during installation and a chipped quartz edge, across laminate, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Signs you need worktop repair in Gorgie
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips often start there.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Burns from hot pans
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Gouges in the surface

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use a chopping board
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Never put hot pans down directly
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Gorgie questions
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you cover Gorgie?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Gorgie and the rest of Edinburgh. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Gorgie?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you cover the entire of Edinburgh?
We cover the whole UK, including Gorgie and the rest of Edinburgh. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
