- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
