What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

What affects the price in Whitehills

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in South Lanarkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Questions from Whitehills

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Do you cover the whole of South Lanarkshire?

All of South Lanarkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Generally. A picture lets us check.

Common problems we fix in Whitehills

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Chips near the sink
  • Gouges in the surface
  • A heat mark or burn

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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’re 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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

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 few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
