About our worktop repair in Stobswell

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We are often asked to fix chipped corners and chips near the sink, in solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Do you need worktop repair in Stobswell?

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Our hiring checklist

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Use a chopping board
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Repairing versus replacing in Stobswell

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Stobswell, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
