What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Common questions in Cockwells
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cockwells
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep wood oiled
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Clean spills straight away
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
