- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Keep wood oiled
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Repairing versus replacing in Kinninvie
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
