Common questions in Dury
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
About our worktop repair in Dury
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are a heat mark or burn and knife marks.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep wood oiled
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

- Doing more than one item at once

Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire worktop
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step

- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. 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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
