Worktop repair at your home in Stirling
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Whether it’s a damaged sink edge and scratches and knife marks, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stirling as everywhere else we work.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use a chopping board
- Clean spills right away
- Keep wood oiled
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Common problems we fix in Stirling
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A chipped quartz edge
- Scratches and knife marks
- Gouges in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
Before booking anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A top that moves on its units
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
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 you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
