What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Lochfoot

  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate

When to call us in Lochfoot

Most chips are on edges and corners, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Dents and gouges
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Scratches and knife marks

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, 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. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lochfoot. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

FAQs for Lochfoot

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Lochfoot?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
