Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Govanhill questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Are there extra charges for Govanhill?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When to call us in Govanhill
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Scratches and knife marks
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Burns from hot pans

What affects the price in Govanhill
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Govanhill, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Clean spills immediately
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Govanhill
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Govanhill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Govanhill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A top that moves on its units
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
