Worktop repair at your home in Langside
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Our repair technicians work on laminate, solid wood and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped quartz edge and cuts and scratches in the surface.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
Why repair rather than replace?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Langside: your questions answered
How much does worktop repair cost in Langside?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe up spills quickly

- Use a chopping board
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
