Worktop repair in Inch, done in place
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage in a new kitchen and a heat mark or burn.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Clean spills right away
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Inch: your questions answered
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Typically. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Why repair rather than replace?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
