In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Related advice
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A top that moves on its units
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, 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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
