Worktop repair in Port Elphinstone, Aberdeenshire
We travel to Port Elphinstone for chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Gouges in the surface
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
How we handle worktop repair in Port Elphinstone
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and people most frequently call us about damage around the sink cut-out and a dent from a dropped pan.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
