DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean spills straight away
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
FAQs for Braidwood
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
