Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Fernhill: your questions answered
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Fernhill is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you need worktop repair in Fernhill?

Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Burns from hot pans
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Gouges in the surface

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fernhill

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.
