Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep wood oiled
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Clean spills immediately
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Repair or replace: which is better?

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
