- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Water-swollen laminate
- Failed support under the worktop
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Use a chopping board
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
