Do you need worktop repair in Garlinge?

The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Garlinge. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repairs by material
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
