Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Munlochy. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Worktop repair in Munlochy without replacing anything
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Common call-outs are for damage from fitting or building work and damage to a stone worktop, in solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and granite & marble.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Munlochy questions
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A picture lets us check.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your IV8 postcode.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Munlochy is about 6 miles north of Inverness, in Highland. Our work suits any type of property, from flats and terraces to detached houses and new builds, plus businesses and rented homes. Munlochy is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland we cover.
All of IV8 is covered. Whether you live on Station Road, Cameron Drive and Brae Terrace or a nearby road, a technician can come to you. Neighbouring places we cover include North Kessock (3 miles south), Charlestown (3 miles south), Avoch (3 miles east), Killen (3 miles north-east) and Culbokie (4 miles north-west).

Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so call us to arrange it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, 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.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
If you are in Munlochy and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace in Munlochy?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
