  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Repair or replace in Cross?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
