Advice
FAQs for Gurnard
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep wood oiled
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Dry around the sink and joints
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

What else we do in Gurnard
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
