Worktop repair in Whinburgh

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Worktop repair in Whinburgh without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for scratches and knife marks and chips on edges and corners, in quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

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.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What we are called out for in Whinburgh

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A heat mark or burn
  • Chipped corners
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 normally far better value. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
