What else we do in Gremista
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Discolouration deep in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
Repairing versus replacing in Gremista
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first

- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
