DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
About our worktop repair in Torphichen
Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for a dent from a dropped pan and knife marks, in solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Keep wood oiled
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
