About our worktop repair in Dawdon
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Whether it’s gouges in the surface and scorch marks from pans, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use a chopping board
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
What we are called out for in Dawdon
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that is where cracks often begin.
