Common questions in Steinis
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Clean spills right away
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Re-oil timber worktops
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Steinis. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
