About our worktop repair in Gowkhall
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Typical jobs include a damaged sink edge and burns from hot pans, in laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Repairing versus replacing in Gowkhall
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gowkhall. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Use a chopping board
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Do you need worktop repair in Gowkhall?
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
