Common questions in Boyton Cross
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.
Common problems we fix in Boyton Cross
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Scorch marks from pans
- Chips on edges and corners
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the colour is matched
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep wood oiled
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
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.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
