Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Never put hot pans down directly
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood

Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
