Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Signs you need worktop repair in Thorpe in Balne

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Gouges in the surface
