How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Keep wood oiled

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What affects the price in Tillydrone

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tillydrone. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire worktop

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tillydrone. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

When to call us in Tillydrone

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips near the sink

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
