When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Laminate

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

Should you replace it?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Signs you need worktop repair in Newington Butts

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • A damaged sink edge
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Chipped corners

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
