What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Failed support under the worktop
