Landlord and trade work in Pathhead
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pathhead as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Water-swollen laminate
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why Pathhead customers choose us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A fixed quote before booking

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Your questions about worktop repair in Pathhead
Do you come to Pathhead?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Pathhead from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you what’s possible.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
