Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price

What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Repair or replace in Dane Hills?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
Your questions about worktop repair in Dane Hills
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you cover Dane Hills?
We do. We send a technician to Dane Hills for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
