What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Grimston. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is

Questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
