What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We do not add 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.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

What we can’t put right

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

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common problems we fix in Kirkton of Durris

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Gouges in the surface

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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