Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Do you need worktop repair in Holborn?
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that is where cracks often begin.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- A heat mark or burn
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Chipped corners
- Gouges in the surface
Comparing quotes
- How your room will be protected
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep wood oiled
- Use a chopping board
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Wipe up spills quickly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
