Worktop repair in Box's Shop, done in place
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new kitchen and damage around the sink cut-out, in quartz, laminate and solid wood.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Box's Shop and across Cornwall.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use a chopping board
- Re-oil timber worktops
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive

- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
