Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep wood oiled
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep joints and edges dry
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
