How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Mountcastle. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EH15 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Mountcastle
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Clean spills immediately
- Use a chopping board
- Keep wood oiled
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Repairing versus replacing in Mountcastle
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need worktop repair in Mountcastle?
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips often start there.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips on edges and corners
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Damage from fitting or building work
Before you book anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
