Worktop repair in Lochardil without replacing anything
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Typical jobs include gouges in the surface and damage from fitting or building work, in solid wood, laminate and granite & marble.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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.
About Lochardil
Lochardil is about 1 mile south of Inverness, in Highland. We work in every kind of home, from flats and terraces to detached houses and new builds, as well as offices, shops and holiday lets. We cover 253 places across Highland, from the larger towns to small villages.
All of IV2 is within our area. That includes homes on Lochy Road, Garth Road and Ashie Road and the roads around them. Neighbouring places we cover include Slackbuie (1 mile south-east), Hilton (1 mile north-east), Ballifeary (1 mile north-west), Inverness (1 mile north) and Crown (2 miles north). Larger places within reach include Cradlehall (4 miles north-east), Dingwall (13 miles north-west), Muir of Ord (10 miles north-west), Fortrose (10 miles north), Conon Bridge (11 miles north-west) and Beauly (9 miles west). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.
Landmarks near Lochardil
We visit homes around Bun-sgoil Ghàidhlig Inbhir Nis, Whin Park and Inverness Royal Academy. For rail, the closest station is Inverness station, about 1.9 miles north of the centre. Nearby you will also find Royal Northern Infirmary (1.2 miles north) and Eastgate Shopping Centre (1.8 miles north). The countryside around Lochardil includes Loch Dochfour and Tomnahurich.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Lochardil. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Lochardil

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips on edges and corners
- Gouges in the surface
- A heat mark or burn
- Chips caused during installation

Lochardil questions
Are there extra charges for Lochardil?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
