FAQs for Linthouse

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover the whole of Glasgow?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Linthouse. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.

Are there extra charges for Linthouse?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Worktop repair in Linthouse without replacing anything

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Whether it’s chips on edges and corners and cuts and scratches in the surface, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Linthouse as everywhere else we work.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Linthouse, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Granite and stone

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

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Repair or replace in Linthouse?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
