Should you replace it?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
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.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

FAQs for Wishaw
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you come to Wishaw?
We do. We send a technician to Wishaw for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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