About our worktop repair in Hawkhead

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood
  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
  • Quartz

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

What affects the price in Hawkhead

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Hawkhead, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Hawkhead: your questions answered

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Usually. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Can you match granite flecks?

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

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Glasgow, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Hawkhead

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
