How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for New Brancepeth
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Do you cover New Brancepeth?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to New Brancepeth and the rest of County Durham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in New Brancepeth
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
