What affects the price in Portrush
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Worktop repair at your home in Portrush
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Typical jobs include scorch marks from pans and snagging damage in a new kitchen, across solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlord and trade work in Portrush
If you manage property in Portrush, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Your questions about worktop repair in Portrush
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Normally. Send us a photo and we will tell you what’s possible.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover the entire of Coleraine?
All of Coleraine, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Repair or replace in Portrush?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Advice
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
