Worktop repair at your home in Lochhill
We repair worktops in place. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. If you are dealing with chipped corners and scorch marks from pans, we can usually put it right, on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should you replace it?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What affects the price in Lochhill
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
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.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Clean spills right away
- Keep wood oiled
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
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.
