Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Wipe up spills quickly

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Do you need worktop repair in Ruyton-XI-Towns?

  • Chips caused during installation
  • Dents and gouges
  • A heat mark or burn

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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.
