How we handle worktop repair in Newbridge

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include knife marks and chipped corners, across solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Newbridge, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Edinburgh and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

10 questions to ask before booking

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 fails, we can still put it right.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

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.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

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

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