Worktop repair at your home in Pettinain
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and the jobs we see most are damage around the sink cut-out and a dent from a dropped pan.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Lanarkshire.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What else we do in Pettinain
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pettinain
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Pettinain: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How much does worktop repair cost in Pettinain?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Keep wood oiled
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
