DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Worktop repair in Willowbrae without replacing anything
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Whether it’s damage around the sink cut-out and chips on edges and corners, we can typically put it right.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Willowbrae
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Willowbrae.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you need worktop repair in Willowbrae?
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A heat mark or burn
- A chipped quartz edge
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Dents and gouges
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Willowbrae. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
There is 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. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
