Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Worktop repair in Clestrain, done in place
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Typical jobs include chips caused during installation and cuts and scratches in the surface, in quartz, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace in Clestrain?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
