Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Signs you need worktop repair in Longbenton

How to compare quotes

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. 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.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
