  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Wood

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

When to call us in Low Street

Most chips are on edges and corners, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

Common reasons people in Low Street contact us are:

  • Damage to a stone worktop

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
