- Repairs from £95

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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.
Worktop repair in Handley without replacing anything
Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, matching the colour and pattern by hand. Nothing is taken out. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are scorch marks from pans and a dent from a dropped pan.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Advice
Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
