Problem with your worktop in East Briscoe? We repair it in place, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Clean spills immediately
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
