Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A top that moves on its units
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
