How we handle worktop repair in Carnhot
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Typical jobs include a chipped quartz edge and dents and gouges, in solid wood, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 fails, we can still put it right.

FAQs for Carnhot
Are there extra charges for Carnhot?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
The whole UK, including all of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use a chopping board
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Dry around the sink and joints
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you are in Carnhot and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Carnhot
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
