All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Pathhead and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Pathhead
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Pathhead. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Pathhead, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A top that moves on its units
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Use a chopping board
- Dry around the sink and joints
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
When to call us in Pathhead
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips near the sink
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Chipped corners
- Knife marks
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
