When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Related advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Peterculter
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

FAQs for Peterculter
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What areas do you cover?
All of Aberdeen, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Common problems we fix in Peterculter
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips near the sink
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Burns from hot pans
- Gouges in the surface
Before booking anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Aftercare advice
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
