The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Questions from Great Abington
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Common problems we fix in Great Abington
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A heat mark or burn
- Scratches and knife marks
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Dents and gouges
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work

What else we do in Great Abington
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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 isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
