1. Laminate Worktops

Laminate worktops are a popular choice due to their affordability and versatility. Common issues include scratches, burns, and chipping. Here’s how to repair them:

Scratches: Use a laminate repair kit, which typically includes wax pencils or putty. Fill the scratch and smooth it out following the kit’s instructions.

Burns: Small burns can often be sanded out using fine-grit sandpaper. For larger burns, you may need to consult a professional or consider replacing the affected area.

Chips: Repair chips by filling them with a laminate filler, sanding it down, and blending it with the rest of the surface. Finish with matching laminate paint.
