Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
What affects the price in Kyleakin
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Kyleakin. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Kyleakin (Gaelic: Caol Acain) is in Highland. From the centre of Kyleakin to the outlying streets, the service is the same: a fixed price, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Kyleakin is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland where we work.
All of IV41 is within our area, from the main roads to the quietest streets. Jobs here include addresses on Achmore Road, Olaf Road and Kyleside and the roads around them. We also cover the places around Kyleakin: Kyle of Lochalsh (1 mile north-east), Erbusaig (2 miles north), Drumbuie (3 miles north-east), Balmacara (4 miles east) and Reraig (4 miles east). Some remote addresses need extra planning, so it’s best to call first.
What’s near Kyleakin
Our clients here include homes close to Skye and the streets around them. The closest station to Kyleakin is Kyle of Lochalsh station, roughly 1 mile north-east. Well-known places in the area include Bright Water Visitor Centre (within half a mile east). For a walk, there is Loch an t-Seachrain.
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 typically the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Common problems we fix in Kyleakin
Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that is where cracks frequently begin.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Gouges in the surface
- Knife marks
- Burns from hot pans
- Chips on edges and corners
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Dry around the sink and joints
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Should you replace it?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Kyleakin. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
