Worktop repair in Menzieshill

Worktop repair in Menzieshill without replacing anything

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Our repair technicians work on laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are damage to a stone worktop and damage around the sink cut-out.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Menzieshill: your questions answered

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you come to Menzieshill?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Menzieshill and the rest of Dundee. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dundee.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Generally. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Menzieshill

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Damage to a stone worktop

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
