Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Keep wood oiled
- Use a chopping board
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Worktop repair in Killen, done in place
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. We work on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new kitchen and gouges in the surface.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Killen
What areas do you cover?
All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Usually. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A top that moves on its units
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Repairs by material
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
