Worktop repair for Kippen homes

Worktop repair in Kippen without replacing anything

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We regularly repair granite & marble, quartz and laminate, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners and damage to a stone worktop.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

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

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kippen: your questions answered

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.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repair or replace in Kippen?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need worktop repair in Kippen?

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

  • Burns from hot pans
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Gouges in the surface
  • A chipped edge

Before you book anyone

10 questions to ask before booking

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kippen. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Kippen, and we will reply with a fixed price.
