What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tain. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairs by material
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Solid wood

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Keep wood oiled
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Landlord and trade work in Tain
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tain as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
