How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Worktop repair in Old Craighall without replacing anything
Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our repair technicians work on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most frequently call us about a dent from a dropped pan and damage to a stone worktop.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Do you need worktop repair in Old Craighall?
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 more slowly, from knives and grit.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Knife marks
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Chips caused during installation
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Severe heat marks in quartz

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean spills straight away
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
