The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price

What else we do in Kirkurd
Kirkurd questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repairs by material
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Repair or replace in Kirkurd?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
