Our hiring checklist

Worktop repair at your home in Maryburgh

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners and damage to a stone worktop.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Common questions in Maryburgh

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repairing versus replacing in Maryburgh

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Maryburgh. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your photos

See our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maryburgh use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

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.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
