Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Carbis Bay
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most customers in Carbis Bay get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep wood oiled
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
