What affects the price in Sighthill

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Sighthill

  • Quartz

FAQs for Sighthill

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do you work in Sighthill?

We do. We send a technician to Sighthill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
