Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Keep wood oiled
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Whinney Banks
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
