The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Illston on the Hill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Common problems we fix in Illston on the Hill
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
Look out for any of the following:
