Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Na h-Eileanan Siar and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
