How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use a chopping board
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Starr Gate, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we are called out for in Starr Gate
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
