Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Use a chopping board
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Re-oil timber worktops
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Questions from Lochend
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Advice
What affects the price in Lochend
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Lochend. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
