About our worktop repair in The Calders
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on granite & marble, laminate and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are knife marks and chips caused during installation.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Calders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Edinburgh and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What affects the price in The Calders
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for The Calders. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Your questions about worktop repair in The Calders
How much does worktop repair cost in The Calders?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Typically. A picture lets us check.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in The Calders
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep wood oiled
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Repairing versus replacing in The Calders
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 generally far better value. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
