Worktop repair at your home in North Leith
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Typical jobs include burns from hot pans and dents and gouges, on solid wood, granite & marble and quartz.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Common problems we fix in North Leith
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A heat mark or burn
- Chips on edges and corners
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Knife marks
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
