Worktop repair at your home in New Galloway
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are chips in quartz or granite and chips on edges and corners.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we are called out for in New Galloway
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A heat mark or burn
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Scratches and knife marks
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How to care for the finish
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Questions from New Galloway
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Are there extra charges for New Galloway?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
