DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Questions from North Kessock

How do I get a price for worktop repair in North Kessock?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Are there extra charges for North Kessock?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Generally. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean spills right away
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
