Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Repairs by material
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
