Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Keep wood oiled
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodhouse Hill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
