Worktop repair in Old Pentland, done in place
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We’re frequently asked to fix damage around the sink cut-out and cuts and scratches in the surface, in quartz, granite & marble and laminate.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Your questions about worktop repair in Old Pentland
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Old Pentland?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

All of Midlothian, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Old Pentland. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Pentland as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Common problems we fix in Old Pentland
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A damaged sink edge
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Burns from hot pans
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Clean spills right away
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
