When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Barripper

  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood

Worktop repair in Barripper without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Typical jobs include chips on edges and corners and a damaged sink edge, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and laminate.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Barripper as everywhere else we work.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

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 burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Questions from Barripper

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cornwall.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Barripper. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Barripper. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barripper

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
