How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Worktop repair at your home in Salsburgh
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Common call-outs are for chips near the sink and snagging damage in a new kitchen, across quartz, laminate and solid wood.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Salsburgh: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How much do I need to move?
Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Usually, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Do you work in Salsburgh?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Salsburgh and the rest of North Lanarkshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Signs you need worktop repair in Salsburgh
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A chipped edge
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Knife marks
- Damage to a stone worktop

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep wood oiled
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
