Trusted worktop repair in Langholm

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

How we handle worktop repair in Langholm

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. Whether it’s knife marks and a dent from a dropped pan, we can typically put it right, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

FAQs for Langholm

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
