Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, 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. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

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

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in High Ruchill

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you cover High Ruchill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to High Ruchill. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use a chopping board
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Ruchill as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
