Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
