Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean spills straight away
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Advice
Repairs by material
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
