Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Worktop repair in Benhall, done in place

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. Typical jobs include chips near the sink and chips in quartz or granite, in quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Granite and stone

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Does someone need to be in?

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
